This is another coin I purchased today at the Westford MA show. The coin is much nicer in hand. My camera really finds a couple of fine lines but they are nowhere near that noticable, even under 5x loupe. Opinions on grade, color, or comments welcome!

    64- / Cameo. I'd like to know how you get those hairlines to show so much. Even when I try to highlight harilines on proofs in pics, I can't get them to show up.
    Some refer to overgraded slabs as Coffins. I like to think of them as Happy Coins.

    Minus the hairlines, that one looks very nice- I don't know anything about that series, but my guess would be that it was lightly dipped at some point in the past.. image
    My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !
