I think it looks great. Nice strike and clashing.

From these pics, Dooly, I think you have made a nice pickup. I repeat Prethen, "Great strike and clashes". What more can be said. Good job.

Looks like a nice overdate. I would worry about if the coin is cleaned though.

Cheers .. It was a bit of a strange auction as the seller had some very nice USA coins for sale which went for "good" money yet this was in my eyes "cheep"

I like it, I think its really nice. I will echo the 'great strike and clashes' comment. I love the look of this coin when its struck well, and alot of them have clash marks to one degree or another, but that is clashed nicely. I like it...nice pick up!

 

Oh, I dont want to forget about seconding Bruceswar's comment about the overdate....nice!

It's very nice. The early dates on this series often have wretched strikes. This one is very nice. I like it.

Original and nice with a pretty good strike for the series.

Not an overdate, repunched date. 6/6 not 6/5
