I saw this, knew the Overton and decided I couldn’t go wrong. It was prettier in hand than in pictures which is also a plus.

Which variety do you think this is? One thing gives it away pretty quickly. Even with the bad pictures you can figure it out.



Pretty coins can come in NGC holders too! 😍

    VF35 is my guess. Not a CBH collector so not sure on the Overton.

    I'm in the 30-35 camp. Attractive coin Paul!

    Looks like a 113a to these eyes

    Alright cats outta the bag… it’s listed as a R2 but only 16 have been graded by PCGS and they rarely come around.

    It’s a VF35 and O-113a. Like I mentioned, it’s listed as a rarity two but is most likely a lot more scarce. Only a few new examples have come up over the past several years and very few are slabbed. It’s a wonder this hasn’t gotten updated to a R4 or 5.

    Ricko this is two threads where you liked a coin with toning. Do you need to talk to someone?

    @Pnies20.... :D I can appreciate the quality of a coin while still not liking the tarnish. That is just one part of the overall product. Cheers, RickO

    The BHNC calls it an R3, an "upgrade" over its earlier R2 designation. Which means several hundred are believed to exist. To put that in perspective an R5 is just several dozen.

    Yes I was overly excited reading maibockaddicts assessment which was probably several years old.

    😂 only 100 more to go.

    It looks better in hand than the trueview, which is rare.

    It's a good looking example Paul. WTG!

    My first thought was about 40, but before I could take a good look, the cat was out of the bag. Edit to say nice coin.
