Hey, I know that one! No, actually another specimen....At least CGS is a bit nicer to matte proofs when it comes to grading than the US TPGs! An exception occurred with the 1927 mattes that went through ? Superior or Heritage recently that did get SUPERGRADES but not nicer than other specimens of that date.

That is a beautiful coin. Exquisite golden toning.

Handsome coin , just shows exactly how good the obverse portrait was and the reverse is a true classic , a coin to die for.
