anacs ms-63 ....I ran accross this piece a while back at a coin show and I have to say it looks better than the grade assigned. The reverse kills me, not to mention the reverse is pretty well struck.....Joe

Now for a 28-D buff this one has a great strike. The typical strike for these 28-D's are extremly weak in the center of the coin, not this one. NGC MS-64...If it had some real luster it would grade much higher because it's HAMMERED....Joe

Okay one last one and I'm outta here. I was hoping to see some really hammered pieces from the folks I know have em.

 

So at any rate here's an interesting piece as the obverse is just as PL as you could amagine and the reverse, well lets just say it's seen it's better days and the die should have been chucked lol ....But I love the obverse and I'm sure it explains the 64 grade which I agree with. I also like the reverse as it just shows how down and out the mint was at that time ....Joe
