I've been wanting one of these for a while, saw one today that "seemed" cheap enough, well I got it for a final hammer price of $26.01. Looks like a solid VF35 or possibly a xf40.

It's an 1859, BTW. Seller's photos (which suck)

MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    congrats... I think at that price you did well...

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    price is right, but image is too pixilated to hazard a grade guess. image

    The date appears to be 1872, not 1859.

    Mac is correct, that coin is an 1872.

    Nice coin loved by many of us, the last and crucial digits are LXXII, or 1872 as has been said. Not a bad price for a beautiful coin, the '72-'74 dates a bit more common.

    Well, just Love coins, period.
