Well here is one of the 2 purchases I made at the PAN show today in Pittsburgh.

It is a PCGS coin. Care to guess the grade?

My photo skills suck on this, but you sure can tell she is crusty.

Coin is not quite as dark in hand, but much darker than most of mine.

    Very nice!

    I say PCGS gave her a VF-35.

    PCGS 40 at least. Grading from such pictures is a total crap shoot.image

    I have been trying to keep to a ms type set, but I liked this, plus at $525 I don't know about getting a ms piece LOL

    What do you think about $525 as the price, I guess some coins you can definately toss the redbook out on huh?

    If this Bustie is not too dark for most collectors, $525 sounds about right for a retail sale. It looks too dark for me. My old eyes cannot see through dark toning.

    Here are some better pics. Only took about 50 shots to come up with these. These are as close to in hand as I may ever get.
