I know it`s not too high of a grade but it does something for me.

    Screams originality.
    Lustre looks strong.
    I'm not a toning fan, but this doesn't bother me.
    Are the center bands really full and split?
    When in doubt, don't.

    I agree with Dennis, for such a beautifully toned and lustrous coin, it would have been great to be able to discern the center bands
    full split and perhaps even rounded surfaces. Love the coin though.

    I am a fan of what I like to think of as "dusky" toning. Your Micro S qualifies and Todd really captures that type of look well.image

    Nice piece.

    Nice original looking coin with an above average strike.
    I've always had an affinity for the micro S for some reason.

    And since when is 64FB not a more than decent grade?!?

    Looks nice to me.
  • LeeBoneLeeBone Posts: 4,591 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Bands are definitely split.
    Our host agreed.
    Hard to tell in my pic but they`re decently rounded too.

    Nice Winged Liberty IMHO. The toning is also attractive.
    Anyone know why the Mint went with a Micro S?
    Is this MM used on any other coinage? Approx how many have the micro S?

    Questions 1 & 2- For the Mercaholics on here.

    Question 3- Pop in 64FB says 123 with 266 being graded higher.
