Wow. You guys are sharp - everybody got it right. It's a D/S, by the way, Top Pop but shared with others.  So, if the one visible mark keeps it from 67, how the devil do they grade 68's?

Sorry to pry, but if you don't mind my curiousity... what auction site did you get this from and how much did you give for it?
Beautiful coin by the way... are you going to crack it open and put it in the dansco album?

This one came from Heritage. I was right at the top of the market for it, but I think it's a keeper. If I like what my camera sees when I get it, it's coming out of the slab and into my 7070. If I don't like it, I flip it.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it? Your thread gave me an  in finding one in MS66+ (I hope it will be as nice as yours).

$250-ish. These go at a substantial premium compared to the D/D's, which are much thinner in Pop than the D/S. You can have a nonvariety 1938-D in MS66 for under $100. So, here's the coin under my lens. Color is just about right. The slab is skritchy, but I don't care - it's either coming out of the slab, or going away anyways.

im just wondering, its not about the coin, how do you put the picture directly into the post rather than just a link?

Super dave, your pics really show the coin's true beauty.
Zacharycash, inorder to do that you need to get a photobucket account(free) and then just press the image button on the post or just use the one the site provides.

Nice! Both the coin and the photos. The one thing that the original photos showed that I can't see on your's is the "S" behind the "D" but then maybe I'm blind. How about sending that coin on to me so I can see it better!  LOL

Best I can do through the slab - autofocus gets a little iffy there, and my eyes aren't up to doing macro work manually.

 Wait 'til I'm done with your Barber and SLQ. You'll be paying me to take them away.

After completing a set of F-12 circulated Buffalos, this coin looks like pure heaven to me. What a beautiful Gem and well struck also. Worth every penny and from what I've seen of the Buffalo market - will only appreciate in value.
