No words. Oh, well, I take that back, I always have words . Absolutely stunning example of this one-year type, and will go beautifully in the high-end type set you're evidently assembling now! Congratulations (again!) on an incredible acquisition.

Wow, what a stunning coin! I always thought myself lucky for the opportunity to see in person (definitely not own!) a VF(30) example (and I still DO consider myself lucky for that opportunity!), but this coin seems truly transcendent. I can't wait to see the grade! AU(58)?

The video really shows the luster so my guess is a market-grade of MS64. Take good care of it. :)

Looks like BH1964 grades like NGC.
Back to eating baloney sandwiches for me.

You've always been honest with us in the past about the cost of your purchases - I'm sure we'd all appreciate knowing, al least approximately.

This coin was sold by Stacks in December 2020 for $114K. If you click on the sale landing page for this coin linked below, you can see that they had horrible and kind of scary pictures up, which I think discouraged everyone from loving this coin on that day. It sold for a song in 2020. I didn't get it that low, but was happy with the price.

PCGS Price Guide lists this coin at $315K but who pays PCGS Price Guide? I though it was good value.

@Coinfrog - I'm sure someone will find it in short order and let us know. Folks are pretty sharp on this board.
