dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 11/17/2013 10:11 am It sure is close. It looks like a slight break at the top and a small nick that may have held it back. Report this Post to the Staff

jayman1970 Valued Member United States 274 Posts	Posted 11/17/2013 2:34 pm NGC requires that the bands are fully split and rounded, this coin has some weakness on the right side of the split and the bands are flat. Report this Post to the Staff

FadeToBlack Pillar of the Community 1751 Posts	Posted 11/17/2013 7:00 pm Lower set of bands has a clear bridge. No FB. Could be a lighting issue or something, though. Edited by FadeToBlack 11/17/2013 7:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff
