Wow that is awesome! I saw one on ebay saying it was the 2nd finest proof ever (thought it was yours) but has a different PCGS number. An AMAZING find and puts all my finds to shame as well! |

Not mine. This is THE best 66RB in eye appeal out there. A lot of these have ugly toning or spots and none are so colorless which some collectors love because most are toned either beautifully or ugly due to the paper they were distributed in. For a no-color collector this is a total dream and from my research, the only one in high grade! Plus this one has a decent possibility of upgrading to RD in the future. I only sent it in once. Didn't want to keep trying for RD but I bet it could make it eventually down the road if the new owner decides to go that route. This is an epic coin even as far as high grade MPL's go!!

Wow! I read the story last week in Coin World and didn't know that it was you who found! Congratulation. I wouldn't have know about it, this is what knowledge in numismatic all about. |

Sorry to ask a question about a different coin. Why was the coin right next to his graded MS65? It is the 1875-cc 25c coin. It looks so worn or is that just the angle of the pic?
