Kevin_1986 New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 08/03/2016 5:23 pm My photos don't do the coin justice at all ... The coin has some nice toning that I can't really get to show up in the photos... Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/03/2016 5:39 pm At first I was focused on the field scratch below the jaw, but now I'm picking up the spot above the ear, obverse pock at 1:30, and reverse nicks. Still nice - I'll revise to 63. Report this Post to the Staff

Kevin_1986 New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 08/04/2016 2:22 pm Thanks guys Yeah the die crack turn out to be a neat bonus as I didn't notice it until the coin arrived ... The coin is in an old PCI slab graded MS65.. It does have the three spots on the obverse that coinfrog pointed out , but these are pretty small spots and in hand it's tough to see 2 of the 3 without a loup ... My thoughts were the coin would go MS64 , one of the reasons I say that is I have a 1883 graded MS63 by NGC .. Comparing them side by side it's obvious the PCI 1883 is the better coin ...
