Marbury, is there any way you could post a tighter crop of the hair?

The eyelid (not the eyebrow) still looks good and untouched to me.(but still a bit blurry or very dull lightning in these newer pics)

Funny how very often a good camera shot gets 'some' of the coin in perfect focus whereas these scans always show "a touch" out of focus.

Big risk when you buy off of someone else's pics. For me...A coin of this value should be seen 'in hand' before risking such a purchase.

I'm still feeling that it's a great MS coin...

Unfortunately if I saw every such coin in hand I'd never have a chance to buy much or would be pretty poor as traveling in this country is very expensive. When you have a job it makes it almost impossible to travel much anyway.

When I bought this coin the auction house said it was graded according to Whitman Haxby system/scale.........is that the same as Sheldon or not? That said AU55 by Whitman Haxby....

AU-58, It looks like there might be some light friction on the hair.

Wear or weakly struck? Given the pics I'll go for wear.

Beautiful coin just the right amount of toning. I think it will maybe make low MS. 60-63.
