Below is a MS66+ CAC that sold on Heritage 3 weeks ago. This Coin is a VAM 3 that sold for $3525.00.  |

Agree fully with the grade and CAC designation. Outstanding coin. The hits are small and close to other features so they don't jump out. Amazing cheek.

Looks like a great coin, accurately graded with a CAC sticker, to boot. If you have the money, go for it. But if you're plagued with OCD, those trivial marks will forever bother you.

To me it looks better than the 1880CC MS66 that sold for $3250. Really getting into the coin weeds with VAM's and different reverses. Your coin really looks frosty and I bet those marks on her face are almost invisible when you see the coin in hand. That is a lot of money to spend on a coin you only see online, but what is the option? I think it comes down to price. It is a scarce coin but not rare like 1916 LSQ and it will cost you no doubt. What are chances of the coin's appreciation? You have to consider that when you pay thousands for a coin I think. |

Only 34 in higher grades. Nice coin!  It's great for a 66+. Though the obverse has marks, they are outweighed by the fact that everything else about the coin is just simply amazing. About 10000 1916 SLQs survive in all grades BTW. Not particularly rare considering my 1852-O Half Dime cost $36 and it's estimated about 200 survive. (Many were melted in 1853.) Edited by Omegaraptor

About what I expected. Did you get it ham? I would have been a touch leery buying a coin at that cost from a 16 feedback seller that doesn't have any recent sales history

The OP coin sold on ebay by David Lawrence on 8/21/16. When I checked the best offer price, it came up $3710. It appears the buyer was doing a quick flip. See link below. 391499143718 |

My scam bells are going off. Hopefully the buyer gets it. If all is legit the seller lost what around $500 with ebay fees |

I bought an 1884-S once in a PCGS ms 62 holder and the coin looked good. I sent the coin out to PCGS to get it reholdered because of scratches on the reverse of the case. I checked the verification to make sure that all was good and it verifyed. I got a letter after sending the coin and PCGS stated it was a counterfeit holder. I DID get my money back but beware, they are out there! the coin WILL verifty as well! If the coin I am buying does not have photos taken of the coin when I verify the coin so I can see the marks on the original pictured coin, I will not buy it.

To quote from a previous post "If these marks are significantly sized/a big eyesore, they might bother someone else and might make selling the coin somewhat more difficult." My plans were to keep the coin, and continue to add to my CC dollar collection. I just didn't like the marks on Miss Liberty's neck (wide and deep looking) and on her chin. And NO, I did not buy the coin. Thanks all for your input. Hamm
