copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 06/15/2009 7:12 pm Nelrak, First of all a stunning coin! I did not see this wherever it was for sale (ebay?) so I want to take a stab at the grade. Is it a 65? Toning can be deceiving and hide little imperfections, but I just don't see anything wrong with that coin. Gorgeous! Report this Post to the Staff

I didn't see it on ebay, I found it on a website where it was listed. Quote: Maybe if I win the lottery. Ya that's what I thought, but since my 401k was stinking so bad, I took a loan from it (paying myself guaranteed interest) and decided to buy some nice quality coins rather than letting Wall Street lose my money, at least I have something I like and I can look at the pictures when I want and KNOW it's in my safe deposit box in the bank and it's MINE! Quote: Beautiful toning. What did it grade? MS65RB, which I think was conservative. Quote: Does that complete the set? Not even close to finishing it, though I am considering building one. I love type coins and I really would like to have a nice type small cent set, so I am thinking about trying to find a really nice Flying Eagle cent next, since I already have the 1859 in MS62, 1860 in MS64, 1883 in PR66BN, 1909 in MS65, 1909 Matte PR65RB, etc. and this cent fills the bill for the VDB.

Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 06/16/2009 01:54 am Congratulations Ken, that is a real beauty. It must be reassuring to know that PCGS has blessed it for grade, authenticity, and lack of artificial toning. I wonder whether that little carbon spot in the right obverse field kept it from the next grade. With all that eye appeal it looks close to 66 quality. Ya done good! Report this Post to the Staff
