  1. Yep, looking with loop from right angle, the knee cap is flatened just a bit and looks slightly rubbed (one tiney line across knee cap). Flat area is long and about 1 1/2 the size of what I think the knee cap would be. I went back to the full size original photo and can not see the flat spot on screen. With that, it is still the best one I've ever seen in person.

     

    Thank you.

  2. I've been watching all the beautiful coins on this post. Here is most of my May purchases. This fits the recent advice "collect what you like within your budget". I'll increase my budget when I learn to grade better. Folks on this board have been great help, especially Supertooth. His tips are the reason you see some better coins in this group. An assortment from coin dealer, ebay, antique shop, and local auction. One of the better ones was actually below silver and a few I paid a little too much.

  3. Got this 2 weeks ago but was just able to get 'reasonable' photo. MS-61 certified with old green lable from across-the-street (learning the lingo)

    As I learn more about MS grading, I may send this in because I think it is better than MS-61
