Very nice example. A close-up of the mint mark would be fun.

MS-64RB . You mentioned a line between the wheat stalks ? But what is that line on obverse from the rim down his fore head to his eye ?

Scratch on obverse is also on the holder, didnt notice that. Here's a closer shot of the mintmark.

Nice coin! Like it as a 64 but PCGS probably gave it a 63.

If the die state were a bit better, I think it would have been an easy 65, regardless, great looking coin!! Congrats

I don't get what people are saying about the die state. Whenever you can see the triangle of the bowtie, the complete shirt color; and the two vertical lines on the face from the forehead, that is an early die state. No question.
You lose that triangle very early on. While not very early die state it is still an early die state.

I agree, and different standards of grading for different dates known for mushyness gets me as well.

@KYCopperCoins, That's a fantastic coin. Thanks for sharing it with us! That's a tough and eye-popping variety.

Thanks for the replies. I have never understood why this variety doesn't command a higher premium than the non variety version, one of my favorite rpm and on a key date Lincoln.
