Purchase this on Heritage Live for the Long Beach show. However, since I collect commems, I had to sit through many hours of other coins until 10:30 pm when commems final began to be auction. I paid a little more for this one than I wanted to, but I love it's look and its low pop. Please comment, Thanks

<< <i>Didn't you just mention that your working on a MS64/MS65 set... So how does a MS67 fit
Yeah, the 50 Piece commemoratives set I'm doing is mostly MS64's and MS65's but for super common ones, I would go MS66, and I wanted just one MS67 example.

Here's a similar one if you're interested

Thanks, but I am a dealer and was just going to stock it. It's not that I was looking for one, in particular.
With all due respect this coin is common in high grade, and while I’ve not looked up the MS-65 or 66 price, I’d be just as happy with an example in those gradews as a collector. As a registry person, I’d want a higher grade, but I’ve long given up trying to please the registry mavens given the rules of the game.
I have one in an NGC holder.
Debating whether to keep it in the NGC slab, crack it & send in raw or maybe send for crossover in it's current holder.
Commems do tend to grow on you.
Nice catch.
