Here it is. I picked ANACS because I felt that they would be the one that would be the most likely to slab it as problem free. Also I don't know how often I will send coins to get graded so I didn't want to pay for a membership at PCGS or NGC that I wouldn't use. In terms of the coin, the cleaning on it light in my opinion, and the cartwheel luster is still there on the reverse, especially when the coin is in hand. I was a little disappointed when it came back as details, but I still love the coin and it is one of my favorites in my collection. Tell me what you think!
The thread that I made about this coin before I sent it in is here

SsuperDdave fixed the yellow in the original images and he posted them in that thread.

Beautiful coin! It's a shame on the details grade but a beautiful coin nevertheless!

I agree on the die break.

If you look hard enough at enough coins of the same issue as yours you might find the progression of the break from 1star to 2 stars to . . . .

It might make for a neat sub collection.

So...threadjack, and for that I truly apologize. I am learning, so trying to post on the thread itself versus starting a new thread.

With re: cleaning, the signs I can gather from this is the gray sheen around the stars. Is there something else I should be looking for? Should the fields on the obv look a differently if uncleaned?

Lastly, coinsandcoins32, I would be dang proud to have that beauty in my collection.

-Jay
