Currently on ebay and graded by NGC as a 'pointed 7'.

It sure looks like a 'blunt 7' to me, but I could be wrong.

What do you say?

I'm guessing the angle is to:
a) keep the flash off the coin
b) keep the picture taker out of the coin*

* = some jokes of ebay listings with the seller pictured in their undoes by accident come to mind...

In that picture it looks like a blunt 7, but would need a straight on shot to be sure.
