Also...I am noticing - maybe it is the pictures- The strike is great..rims are very sharp , and the fields seem a little rough- Could this be a matte proof ? I am not real familiar with them , but I am curious.



It's an excellent strike, this coin is way more impressive in hand. I'm not matte proof expert, in fact, I know very little about them....but I don't think this is even though the fields look that way. The fields are the first thing that attracted me to this coin, and they are indeed a bit "bumpy" as in the picture.
