Very well struck for the issue, with full hair on Liberty, full star radials and 90% of the corn ear. An extremely light surface planchet flaw right behind Liberty's head, shown in the third image provided. Like many survivors, this shows an extremely light cleaning with some hairlines visible if you look for them (when you tip the coin to the light). Oddly enough, the color is about what I would expect for the issue, so the cleaning did not do much damage; it may have just been "wiped". No actual wear, i. e. no metal removed from the surface, and some luster can still be seen. The combination of the planchet flaw and the hairlines means this is a no grade at PCGS or NGC, so I did not bother. Offered at a price that makes me money, you can decide if you want to call it "Unc" or Choice AU. There is remarkably little spread between grades for this date from AU to a low end Unc in any case. I will note that I should not have any trouble selling this coin at a coin show "sight seen" for about the same amount (allowing for the difference ebay fees make). Guaranteed genuine, backed by our firm’s 80+ years in the business, plus all the industry “garden salad” (PCGS, CAC, NGC, ANACS, ANA, etc., etc.). Please note that due to value this will require Insured shipping with Signature Confirmation, hence the S&H shown. Based upon delivery address this MAY require Registered Mail shipping, which is slower delivery time. If in any doubt, feel free to ask. Optional shipping by Insured Express Mail - all services quoted are below my actual cost.

This seller has enabled "Manual Invoice Approval" on their account. This means that after you complete checkout, you will NOT be automatically redirected to PayPal (if applicable) and will not be able to complete payment immediately. Instead, the seller will review the invoice and may, or may not, add or subtract additional charges, as explained in their policies and/or listing description. When the invoice is updated and approved by the seller, you will receive an automated email notification later, and you will be able to pay the updated invoice as you would normally.
All checks must clear prior to payment of purchase, which may take up to 12 Business days. IF YOU CHOOSE TO PURCHASE MULTIPLE ITEMS, PLEASE WAIT FOR AN INVOICE PRIOR TO PAYMENT. I combine all shipping charges to the minimum necessary to get purchases to the customer. Please be aware that the USPS has recently increased postage for package shipments and Insurance - $7-$9 for shipping may look like a lot, but it barely covers my actual cost. If you have any questions, just ask.
