Very nice coin, I find this date is particularly difficult to find in this state of preservation. Looks like it has a "cameo" effect too!

Gorgeous example, do you mind if I keep a copy of the pictures for future comparison when practicing grading?

Thanks guys. Use any of my pics ..'as you need'. ..
...but for excellent grading, I would always refer to bosox's photos as the best out here....

Your right Glenn, trying to find top notch 08's is like looking for a needle in a haystack,..for some strange reason...

Absolutely gorgeous! Am I seeing things or is there a die crack between the "VS" and the "VII"?

CanadianCollector...good eyes...!!

Here's another sharper image of the same coin.

You can see the DC's better,... but the sun blasts it too much for me. DC's in A R D V S V...I A R

Thanks for all of the comments ...
