Thanks for the replies. You can't see it in the pics but there are small black specks all over the coin. Also a flat spot on the bottom of the steps and a couple small nicks here and there along with a fingerprint on the obverse. Probably come back as ungradable because of all that. However, there is very little wear overall on the coin. Probably worth in the neighborhood of $25 or so even with all it's imperfections.

Second set of photos is much better ... in focus enough and out of your hand for me to agree ...

Congratulations ... nice 1999 WAM ... tough coin indeed to find.

Ah, you lucky dog! I've only found one in about 5 years of searching. Yours looks slightly better than mine. This is a rare bird indeed. Congrats.

WTG!

Congrats on your first 99 WAM Joe!


You only need to find 2 more and you'll tie me!

Chuckster, good to hear from you. When you told me about your 2nd one, I didn't understand how difficult they were to find. Doubt i'll be lucky enough to find 2 more for the tie but who knows. Thanks again for the replies.

If I find another in better shape, I may send it out for slabbing. I wouldn't clean it.
