I’ve had this grade and denomination before and just tolerated the coin but after seeing other examples in the same grade that were superior, I started to be annoyed when I saw my coin that I used to own so about two years ago I sold it and just had that vacancy in my set.
Basically, waiting for that right coin to come along… Well today it did! For the grade, I think this thing is fantastic!
Thanks @justindan for this splendid example!
I have sold several in my 12 piece gold set and had a few vacancies but this one fills my four piece Indian set… There’s still a few more I need but I want my entire 12 piece set to be all MS64…
The search continues, but this was very satisfying to pick up today!
What do you guys think?
And of course, show me your $2.50 Indians!

Looks very nice and lustrous! Congrats....Love the design!
That’s a really nice one, ashe! CAC agrees with me.
Glad to see you adding to your gold sets again.
Let’s see….$2.50 indians?
As soon as I saw who started the thread, I knew I would love the coin. Nice piece!

Nice! Probably the best looking of all gold coin designs.

You have some beautiful coins my coin brother.
Nice one, OP!
Justin's a good guy as well!
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
Thanks @asheland for the purchase and the shoutout! Always enjoy seeing the coins I sell go to good friends who truly appreciate their quality! I really believe that is a superior coin to most and was sad to see it go.
Really nice coin.

Almost a year ago, Paradime Coins marketed a set of a dozen or so QE’s (J Brand collection). Most if not all were MS & high quality. Just about all were CAC approved. I bought this one - it’s the highest graded QE I own & has stunning eye appeal:
