Comments:
I purchased this coin from on of my favorite eBay sellers on 10/17/2021 for $35.70. It is funny, because this might be the highest amount I have ever paid in a no reverse auction for a war nickel. That said, my bid was double the realized amount because I could tell this coin was at minimum, an MS66 FS. Once I had the coin in hand, there was no doubt that MS67 6FS was going to be the grade.

Regarding the name of the coin, I was thinking about all of the synonyms for "flawess" that I could muster, and once my brain stumble upon Unsullied, my love for Game of Thrones would let me go no further.
