Die cracks are cool especially on a proof coin !!

Nice stuff regandon !!

interesting thought !! do you think the coin would have been a PR-70 without them ?

Yes I do believe the coin is a Pr-70. But I quess seeing how this is the only one known for now, NGC must think the gradeing is good enough. I have one outstanding Morgan Mint Error that should have been an MS68, but I feel because of it being a true mint error they graded lower.

I guess that NGC was leaving room for the Registry sets, I'm a little surprised that they did not also include a cam designation for the coin ?

Just a little more room I guess.

No matter what NGC says, these are your coins and your opinion is the one that counts.

But I think they are both really cool coins !!
