Owner Comments:

This is the coin that started the set and is still my favorite double dime in the collection. There is a bit of mint luster left on the coin, particularly on the reverse yet the coin also has enough toning to give it good eye appeal. Lady Liberty shows decent details in her hair, breasts, knees, and cap.

However, it is the eagle who pops out at you. The feathers are crisp, clear, and detailed. This is true for the left wing as well. The feet do show some wear but other than that this is an attractive coin that I suspect would CAC.
