Thank you all! It was the nicest one I have seen that wasnt a grand or more. And yeah, I am thinking they under graded it as well. I fully intend to crack it out to go in the album. I may send it in to ANACS and see what they do with it.

If you're going to crack it out for the album, why would you spend more money sending it to ANACS and then crack it out again for the album?  |

I really think it deserves a higher grade, though I may change my mind when I get it. So throwing it in with the others wont cost me a whole bunch more. |

Very nice purchase. Make sure you are 1000% happy with it, seller has a good return policy. Looking closely at the reverse, I see some unusual markings. I hesitate to say scratches, and it's probably just the effect of the grain.

They run the same direction, so I'm fairly sure thats the case. But believe me, I will be going over it when I get it. |

Nice! I've seen this coin posted somewhere before on another forum. Good grab.

Gotta call it a solid vf rev. Not much $ difference between fine and vf. Call it a very rare coin for the grade! Nice buy

Awsome! I remember as a kid filling holes in an old blue folder with aspirations of finding one. Sadly, 46 years later and that holes still empty.

This is the coin I have wanted for a good 30 plus years. I am pretty sure I found one back in my teens and was cheated and lied to by the local coin dealer. It was a dmaged example, but I am fairly certain it was legit. That dealer ended up being arrested a number of years later. Total scheister. |
