Awesome coin that is currently listed on E-bay. See I.D. # 250850176496. Auction is expiring on Sunday, July 17, in late afternoon. Coin trends for $3,000.00 Can., however, the highest non-Reserve bid currently sits at less than $1K. I've got a feeling this beauty may go for lesa than 50% trends.

From the seller's photos it appears to have great lustre, and clean fields but lacks the detail to be worthy of top dollar for it's grade

It does look to be a weaker strike. Maybe looks better in person? Rodney is usually pretty good at taking photos...

That coin is dead for a MS-64 grade, especially being a .925 silver coin. The obverse, while very pristine with clean fields has no cartwheel lustre (at least none that I can see in the photos). My personal opinion is that this coin has been "dipped to death".

If you pick up your monitor and tilt it at different angles to the light you might pick up the cartwheel effect
seriously,though the reverse looks quite lustrous in the sellers photo
