I posted this earlier with the seller's blurry pictures, but got it in hand now. I think I got pretty good pics, but the color is blast white. It looks like it has a golden tone, but that is from the incandescent bulb I use for pictures. Thoughts on grade and problems appreciated. Thanks!

After posting it looks a little flat. It looks really lustrous in hand.

 In the spirit of beating a dead horse (  ) for which there appears to be an icon, I received some coins back from a TPG submission so updating some old threads. Thanks for all your help!
