How'd I do for my 99 cent investment? (well, shipping was $2, so I guess it's a $2.99 investment.)

The Greysheet has that coin priced at $3.
So even counting S&H you came out ahead.

Nice consistent surfaces with no distracting hits. Slight strike weakness noticeable in the 1st feather, hair above the braid , and buffalos head. Can't get a good feel for die state but looks MDS (ballpark). VF20 ignoring strike based solely on perceived wear. I'm at VF25 taking into account slight points of strike weakness.

The point of the horn is missing.
That generally limits the grade to Fine.

I'd say VF-20, but don't take my grades seriously... I just had coronary bypass surgery yesterday, and I'm laying in a hospital bed all doped up.
