    Don - Tough to really tell from the photo. Looks like touches of wear in the hair and lots of little hits. AU-55? Color looks odd in the photo - an old cleaning? - Rob

    I'm of the opinion that that should be dated 1901, and sent to me.

    Seriously, though- looks nice.

    I won that 1901 half you pointed out to me, BTW- did I tell you that already?

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    Hi Don,

    I saw that you bid on that piece at Staples eBay. It looks EF to me. Did you win it?

    Gene, yes I won it for $85 + $4 shipping.

    Rob, it may be cleaned or dipped. Staples is usually pretty good at describing a coin as cleaned if it is. I also was worried about the color but I'm going on Staple rep. for this. I can always return it if it's been monkeyed with.

    Great buy! Canadian Coin News Trends has it as $200C in EF, $300C in AU.

    I've bought many coins from Staples - all graded correctly IMHO. One of my fave sellers.
