    MMMmmmm... ...proofy.

    It's a nice coin but the planchets scratches from 11 to 3 o'clock detract
    a great deal in my eyes. The strike can be much better on these.

    Otherwise it's a nice clean example of an early PL clad. The eye appeal
    will probably get it an MS-65 grade and it might be technically close to
    MS-66. I believe the strike and planchet problems will hold it back.

    MS65 due to the waekness in the hair.

    Nice coin though!
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!
