The obverse is really clean and I am not seeing many hits at all. The reverse has a few hits here and there.
I think MS65BN is good grade for this coin.
Love it.

Thanks Jim! The camera makes the hits look worse than they really are. The reverse field ticks are very minor in hand. What sold me on this coin was the incredible detail on the obverse. Reminds of the Kenndy "heavily accented hair"....the hair on this thing is just hammered....even the side-burns are detailed. I think if the beard looked like a 1916 I would have peed. LOL

Thanks! Yes, the 1916 is very much AU. The master dies were new in 1916, these are normally very well-struck and show lots of detail. This one has obvious signs of wear....but I still love it.  |
