Hello,

I am watching this on ebay. The coin looks good but there are no returns. The seller sent me a few additional pics and the light vertical scatches all appear to be on the holder. ANACS has it at 40. I like the tone but I am a bit concerned about the hit on the neck (middle left)

What do you think?

What would you bid (if you would bid)?

Seller was nice to send to extra pics and not add them to the listing. Obverse doesn't quite look EF40, but it's a nice looking, in demand coin, and will probably top out around 300. Snipers are waiting.

Very nice color and original surfaces. The hit on the neck may not look so bad in hand. It might not go so high if other bidders think the vertical scratches are on the coin.

Confused a bit. So you do or do not think the vertical neck area marks are on the holder? Have you asked the seller straight out?

Nice coin.

If the scratches on the chest area on on the holder, and not the coin,
then I would like the coin.

Good luck to you, if you decide to bid! The grade seems to be pretty accurate to me.

Here are the extra pics, which may clarify what I mean.

It's a nice coin with eye appeal to boot. Don't be surprised to see it jump high at hammer time.

It's a nice looking piece that should probably be in a 35 holder.

Agree super eye appeal but only a 35.
