What do you think of this SLQ?

I don't know much about this series, but this coin just caught my eye for some reason at the last show I was at. I bought it in an NGC MS63 FH holder, and it crossed successfully to PCGS. Thanks for any opinions!

    I like it , did you have to pay a premium for the toning if you don't mind me asking? I found one with toning something like that about a year ago and had to pay a little bit of a premuim for it but I really enjoy looking at the coin.

    Thanks everyone. I paid about 10-15% under the PCGS price guide, though I didn't really know what ask/bid was. I just liked the coin, and asked the dealer what was the best he could do. It seemed reasonable so I went for it.

    I like it a lot. The spot between the L and I on the obverse might bug me a bit over time....but my guess is that in-hand it's far less noticeable then in the mega pics. image

    Toning is attractive.
    Don't like that big spot alluded to above.
    The strike on the 17 P Type I is usually hammered. The head detail on this one is weak, and I'd pass on the coin for that reason.
    Don't know why it's in a 3 holder. 3s are usually pretty banged up and the surfaces on the image appear to be pretty clean.
    Don't know the spread on an NGC FH vs. PC FH in 3 for this coin. Am wondering whether it as worth submitting for a cross.

    I think it is awsome. I love the color and the strike.

    Good find.

    I think the coin looks great, Just what I would be looking for in a nice SLQ. Nice Pick up, looks like a keeper.
