I'm pretty sure this came out of a Whitman folder some time in the distant past. It was in a roll I am currently sorting, they all came out of the same holder as far as I recall. This coin has blacks, but it also has the rainbows. It has pearlescent lustre comes out flat due to image reduction. The coin was originally weakly struck, I'm thinking EF45.

I sure like that word pearlescent. I can not see that on the pictures. AU rolls off the tongue better than EF. That is my opinion.

Certainly a very solid EF45 I would agree with cownick that it looks a lot like AU

I'd love to bump it up, I could be talked into it, I know I want to.

Regardless this was the best piece I found for the date/mark combination for a set of ten cent pieces that one of my sons friends wants. He wants all the ten cent pieces 1902-1936 inclusive. Target price is 100 per year (or less of course) with eye appeal outweighing technical grades. He was looking through my books and wondered why the spares boxes had higher grade coins. I just told him I want my collection to look as good as possible, so a great looking 64 is better to me than an ugly 65 any day.

After all, what do we do with coins? We look at them.

I need to take a video of this one, it looks so good in the light, it's ridiculous.
