Looks like a heckuva die clash is reason for those polish marks, areas involved, feathers and face. Just guessin', my impression only.

Condition Census example of a toughie. Can't call it a "big" score in the context of who found it, though.

Yeah. We'll call it a moderately pleasing score Dave

I have been wanting one for a while with my passion for scrubbed dies and clashes. Never thought I'd find a possible top pop gem in a cull bin though but I'm sure that doesn't surprise you a bit, me either really

Two fishermen with equal skill, experience and equipment can spend a whole day next to each other at the wharf, and one could find it impossible to keep them off his hook while the other gets shut out. The only gentlemanly thing the one with less success can do is congratulate the other guy, go home and cook a steak.
Rest in Peace

I'll update grade for sure. It'll either be in a couple weeks or 2 months +/- depending on whether I throw it in a bulk sub or not.
Rest in Peace

Not sure how I missed this over here but I'll add now that this one should be near or at the top of your list for your next bulk sub. As Dave mentioned this one is eclipsed by your recent big score but it's still big in it's own right. Keep on...
