I can't imagine I'll find another coin to top this beauty this year, so it's all downhill until 2020 for me. PCGS graded this CBH AU-58+ last week, and I had been anxiously checking for TrueViews ever since, just waiting to share it. I was hoping the coin might sneak into a MS-62 holder despite the light wear, but I am more than happy with a 58+. The coin has absolutely incredible luster which is likely what gave it the bump to a plus grade. The TrueView photos make the coin appear a little more yellow than it really is in hand.

What grabs me is the apparent 360° die crack on the reverse. Very nice coin.

So was it a find in a collection, or a new purchase? Nice coin, thanks for sharing.

Quick Question. If it has a die Scratch or break most of the way around the coin. Why would PCGS NOT put that on the holder as a ERROR or DAMAGE ?

It is not an error or damage. It just accurately reflects the state of the die at the point of time it was struck. Dies wore out over time and had to be repaired or replaced.
