Thank you for all of your responses.

The purchase of this coin was a major mistake on my part. PCGS graded this piece MS-63. As you have pointed out it is really an AU-55 or 58. The obverse fields are dull and do not qualify for Mint State.

I bought this piece in 2007, and I'm still kicking myself over this purchase. The coin has good eye appeal and nice toning, but it's not Unc.

billjones: the good news is, somewhere out there, there's plenty of people who buy slabs and not coins, so this should be easy to flip and invest towards a better MS example. :)
