I was pretty happy with this deal. Seller had it listed at higher price "or best offer". I made an offer, and he took it :)

Grade? Thanks.

Love the color on this one. Clean surfaces. Typical strong strike for a 48. Nice pickup. XF40 All day

Jerry, this one was listed at $60. I offered him $45, and he agreed within an hour.

(but don't tell him I told you)

My first thought was VF-30 N-17 but I defer to Vermontensium's grade of VF-25. Not enough wreath detail for an EF designation. LI in Liberty worn into the coronet.

45 is much more reasonable price than 60 asking price IMHO

It is an N17 Celtic. Good eye!

Interesting y'all can tell it's a strong strike, but worn as opposed to weak strike or late die state with less wear. I'll have to learn that.

$45 is a reasonable price for a problem free coin.
