Are you going to have a crack at it Appleangel? Probably good value at $150 but not so
sure about it if it gets over $200 with such a weak strike

Its very hard to tell with the dark lighting but I cannot see any wear or scratches/dents. It also looks like there's lots of lustre. The toning doesn't really bother me although there is a spot on the reverse in the lower band of the crown. If its fully lustrous and there are no marks then its UNC. If there are some marks then aUNC. I doubt it would go as low as EF with that much lustre and absence of wear. It looks nice anyway  |

I just saw your other posts. $150 is very cheap. I wouldn't be surprised if it does up substantially. Can someone post a link to the auction for me?

Thanks for the link Seller looks decent. Trout has purchased from them before, presumably around Christmas time  Too rich for me at the moment. I think it will go much higher with a day left though. Give it a crack steve. |

Persnally I would never spend that much on ebay but if it was fr a dealer I wpuld be happy tp fork out upwards of $300 if it hadnt been cleaned. |

With that much lustre remaining it would have to be high end AU at least. Lousy strike on the reverse but the obverse is nicely struck. If I had seen that I would have paid $150 in a heartbeat  |

Ok I might be mad here but I think this one is not even EF. More like a VF.
Where is the cross on the orb on top of the crown on the reverse.
Where are the vertical ridges on the two blob things on the crown as well.
Still a good start for the winning bidder.
