Sorry Mr. Weasel...but as a dedicated forum friend, I just cannot allow a coin officially designated as damaged to plague your collection. Therefore I will offer to take it off of your hands free of charge. Just ship it to me and I will make sure this coin is something you will never have to set eyes upon it again.😋

NICE! Thanks for sharing. Always feels so good to get a dream coin.

there is a scratch on the left wing (right side) as well as a rim ding (under lower right prong)
hardly noticeable which is a major reason I "like" and accepted this coin :D

I'll say my budget was 200 and i watched less desireable coins of similar grade go for 250-300 for the worst at this weekends greatcollections auction as well as a few on e-bay
suddenly 210 was quite acceptable lol :D
