Me likey!

That's an absolutely beautiful coin. I wonder who had the foresight 153 years ago to protect and preserve it so well?

I can't stop looking at this coin...

I'm shooting to buy a ms62 example for my type set, and I thought it was beautiful. But that 65 right there... wow.

What a sweet looking coin!

It has fantastic eye appeal. Worth a big chunk of change in that grade!

Wow! Absolutely stunning!! I too wonder who had the foresight to preserve this coin for that long!! Back then even a dollar was a lot of money, it's amazing that people preserved coins... Well, had the ability to keep them out of circulation!!
Again, wow!! Thanks for sharing!!
