I Just got this one today and it is very nice. The obverse looks a little better than the reverse. I'd love to know what you guys think about this coin. To slab or not to slab? I don't know if it could break MS64 but if you guys think it has a chance, I'd send it in. Any help is always appreciated. This coin has a very large spread on ebay. Around 300 - 1200.

I just noticed the strike above her right breast. I guess there's no need to send it in for grading.

One of my favorites and definitely on my list of "must haves".

mds, why do you say you would not get it graded?

Excellent and desirable coin, but I don't think it would make 64. 62 or maybe 63 more possible.
Zero wear, but too many small dints for 64. That's one of the problems with MS gold. Gold is soft.
Reverse better than obverse. Rims OK, don't know what the edges look like.

CoinsKelly,

I would only send it in if I thought it could have broken MS64 but I know this will never happen. It's a nice coin and I got an OK deal. For now, I'll leave it as is (in a 2X2).
