This awesome piece was floating around e-bay for some time. I have an MS-62 yet I believe this is a nicer piece in an old PCGS holder. I threw in what I felt was a lowball bid and ... I won. These are very hard to find nice as this piece given the circulation issues with a low mintage of 6,000. It arrived safely today and seems to have some mirror like fields.
