Well I bet you all didn't see this coming. Difficult one to grade by the photos.

Sold for $25,850.00 in 2014.

Reminds me of my 1838 O dime (you can find the post about this one if you search for it), with very similar toning and being overgraded. To be honest, I would rather see mine in a PCGS MS(60) holder than its current NGC MS(62) holder, given the surface marks/scratches. I feel that color helped make NGC upgrade mine too much. From the pics we saw, this one seems like it should not be above 65, and I wonder if NGC did the same thing.

Looks like @panz was the closest grader on this one. always nice to get a calibration from having the TPG grade afterwards. Thx for the follow-up @toby!
