jsburton, I hope you understand that the pictures posted do not show a coin that is AU 55, that is all. If you sense responses of disbelief, it is because the pictures posted really to look to us that the coin has been cleaned, possibly harshly. Even to me and I waited until the second set to offer my opinion.
It seems you are happy with the coin and since you have cracked it out of a slab you plan on keeping it. Enjoy your coin and understand the opinions offered are meant to help and not hurt.
Oh I can't sell the coin it's been in the family for 90 years. None of my coins are for sale. They will be my sons. My grandfather had a large collection and passed it to my dad, my dad has even a larger collection which will all be passed to me and then to my son.
