    1988 Flared G

    Additional Information
    Date: 1988
    Variety: Wide AM
    Mint: Philadelphia

    Bought this raw from Roger. Was hoping it would slip by and get RED, but no luck. Still a nice example.

    Nice grade, Will! Was that your "scrub" coin, Roger? You guys amaze me with your top notch grades in varieties.

    I’m not sure how they decided on close ones like this example. I would have hoped for red too.

    My other example, which is the first variety I ever found, has a beautiful obverse, but some nasty verdigris spots on the reverse. Pesky zincolns.

    Have one NGC graded MS 65 Red. Forgot about it 'till now. Found mine searching some years back. I like the valuation on yours.

    Doesn't look like she is interested in inheriting spinnerbait lures either. Go figure.
