I'm finding it hard to see any wear at all. Having said that, I am concerned about the pictures and lighting. I just have the sinking feeling that once in direct light, you will see that all of the very small nicks/scrapes in the fields right now will be magnified exponentially. You can see them in the provided photos, and these just look like angle and lighting shots to minimize the exposure. I do apologize for thinking of the worst, and I truly hope the fields are actually as clean as they seem to be in the pictures provided. I am just wary....

Regardless, it looks like a very nice example, congrats on your purchase.

Thanks Tights24... I am very pleased with her... Ok... I figured out my camera... so here's some pictures I took. The color in the original pictures are truer to the coin. She is silver/grey... not the pretty gold tone in my pictures. (how do I get the pictures on the page so you don't have to click on them?)

Do you think she's been cleaned? On the first rev picture... in the small area between wing and branch there are slight scratches... they aren't noticeable to me anywhere else... please tell me what you see... I'm learning!

Sheepy,

She's a beaut! Minimum AU with an MS potential ... but I would need to see larger pic's ... or you could send her to me for a closer look. Nice pick-up!
