..well, it's beautiful to ME. Even if I did overpay and drop $4.99 for this gem.

Not all beautiful coins need to hide in plastic bricks.





Thanks for looking. AB

Not sure, but I think that's a close 3 rather than an open 3.

Was hoping for a PO-01 but it looks like a consensus FR-02, I think the obverse is definitely a PO-01 but the reverse might have just enough detail in the center to make a FR-02.

I don't like the look of the obverse; it looks ground down, like someone got sandpaper or a file to it. I hope I'm wrong, but in my opinion someone was trying to manufacture a PO-01.

It looks to me that there is enough detail missing (on both sides) for it to be a PO-1.

I've got some free PCGS submissions, I should submit it and see what happens.

Even though you do have a free submission to PCGS I'd still prefer to spend my efforts on a coin such as this one having at least a G grade.

PO-1
