This popped up on ebay last week for $20 shipped. Figured it was a fair price despite the crud. Looks like a solid AU coin with a lot of luster left on the obverse and likely will use some Verdi-care on it once I get my hands on a bottle. Always liked this variety but had such trouble finding one for a fair price. Hopefully I'll upgrade this sometime soon, it will look quite nice in RB or RD but for now I'm quite happy to own one of these.Thanks for taking a look! -CH27 http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...0DDDO001.htm   Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage

Yes sir nice find...  Until you get the verdicare, I'd acetone and nose oil it. But that's just me |

Thanks CoinHI! Really neat variety when you think about it. A wide separated RPM and a solid DDO as well! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage

A really nice "Wow" coin! An acetone bath, (read all cautions on the container) followed by a distilled water rinse and air dry (never wipe the surfaces) should help arrest the corrosion. I have to start looking at ebay again! I'm jealous!  ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

For a major variety coin these can be picked up in less than top MS condition for reasonable prices. Unsure why it doesn't enjoy more popularity than it does, but certainly a rare coin at an affordable price. Nice pick up.
