  Congratulations on such a pretty coin👍

  The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

  It is always nice to see some original surface gold as so many have been dipped over the years.

  All glory is fleeting.

  Nice. Original gold is getting to be more and more elusive.

  I would want to see that one in hand to see if the metal is toned or if that is a layer of some sort of contamination that has turned. Don’t see many edge toned gold coins like that Rev. And the splotchy around states, a little too reactive to these eyes is my first thought esp on a clear UNC. But trueviews can be tricky

  I suspect it was tucked away in the corner of a tanned leather coin purse and forgotten for quite a long time. I have no concerns when viewing in hand and two numismatic groups have looked it over and found no problems so I think it is a result of the coin’s natural history.

  I love the copper shades and the little hints of blue. Beautiful.
