I continue to prefer this type of double eagle over the St. Gaudens. I just think this is a more beautiful coin. To me these look like coins not some piece of art. This coin still has some lustre, but is darker than my other coins. Bag marks are evident even without the aide of a microscope on the obverse and much less on the reverse. I'm probably too critical with my grading as I'm more used to newer coins and non-gold coins, so am happy it was graded a ms62 before i purchased it.
