Oh my, look what arrived today!

What do you think?

I'll let you know what I think a little later ...

oh, and yes the slab is scruffy, especially on the reverse.

Very Nice, super strike and original surfaces. Of course the luster is subdued by the toning but she appears to have original skin which is getting even harder to find.

That is one of my favorite dates - and I like the SLQ as my favorite design -
[yes, even though I am better known for Barbers ] - so - I like that coin alot !!

Nice pick up ... I assume its an AU 58 ? It'd look really good in my Everyman Set !!

Nice SLQ... a little too muted for my taste, but a good coin nonetheless... Cheers, RickO

Beautiful original skin with a strong stike for the date.

AU 58..?

Congrats, great coin and date.

I'm also in the AU-58 camp.

Thank you shsih, bidask, Mike and Ricko

Indeed she is an AU58, slabbed by our host, and as shish and bidask commented, I think she is very original with a nice skin. The color of the photo seems a little off (it is a more vibrant slate gray (that is if slate gray can be vibrant - probably not for Ricko). Also, one of the better strikes for the date as bidask pointed out. Overall I am very pleased, and feel it is accurately graded.

Yeah, yeah Mike

I think it'll look good in my set too!

Thanks for the feedback, I do appreciate it.
