So, we were doing the posting here and cruising ebay thing when I came across this little gem. I didn't mind the pitting on the front for the off center on the reverse and snagging it for under 30 bucks.

Whatever the condition, grade or damage ... that is a great piece of USA coinage history that has now found a new home.

Well done.
