Today is my birthday, and to treat myself I picked up a nice Type III, Recessed Date SLQ. I just wanted to hear what the CCF Members had to say about her.
Thank you for your interest!

Happy birthday o! I agree with MS65FH.
Is that a die crack that I see? It looks like it's close to a retained.

No wear, strong luster, very few marks, and no-question full head detail. Can't see any less than MS-65 FH from PCGS.
Great B-Day present, congrats!

Nice present, So we know the date of the coin. What about your date?  Edited by bpoc1

Where does he get these wonderful toys?
Slam dunk to me at 65FH, probably better but 66 is an order of magnitude more expensive. 65FH. In a new PCGS edge-view slab, 64FH wouldn't surprise me. They're alternately clueless and brutal these days, very little middle ground.
I'd want a clearer view of the upper right leg and right panel on the obverse to be more sure; there's things there which might lessen my opinion for a coin so obviously Gem otherwise.

You asked for opinions, so... First impression = WOW! But a question: How does the weakness of the lowest star and "1" of the date affect the numerical grade? Does it really matter?  |

Does it really matter? Now that you call my attention to it, I see what might be a corresponding area of weakness opposite that in the IT of UNITED. Maybe the slightest of die tilt, exacerbated by the rest of the strike being pretty much a hammer? The other side of the beading is certainly as strong as it gets. I can't really see it affecting the grade. |
