Agree that the surfaces look really nice for a 62. Congrats!

Good choice!

That was the same first US gold coin I bought at the beginning of 2019.

So I actually bought this coin a few months back and returned it immediately. I thought although there weren't many hairlines the surfaces looked horrible in person. No luster and dark as if it had putty used to clean it up. If you like it that is what counts but for a 62 the surfaces were completely dead. I was quite disappointed in it and I think it would be very hard to resell. My personal opinion. I bought some other very nice gold coins from the same seller but this one had photos that made it appear more colorful then it was in hand.

I bought it as it looked nice in pictures. But if you look at more of these coins in person they should have MUCH more lively surfaces. I am pretty confident its the same coin.. also I am truly sorry if this is a buzzkill. I'm just trying to help.

That's most indeed the same coin; however, it's got color so I'm partial to it.

Nice gold.

This is not what puttied gold looks like. Do I think it will ever CAC? No, the luster is pretty muted. Do I think it is accurately graded? Yes. Would I keep it if it were mine? Yeah, probably.
