1908 Liberty. NGC MS-64.

1908 Liberty. PCGS MS-64+.

Exceptional quality is evident on the reverse, which could grade as high as MS-67 all by itself. Only minuscule contact marks affect the obverse, but there are just a few too many to justify the full... |

1908 NGC MS-64 CAC.

1908 Liberty. NGC MS-63.

1079 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $800.00 |
1908 Liberty. NGC MS-63.

1908 Liberty. PCGS MS-63.

Sassy luster flings off the fields, amplifying the satiny surface texture. Struck well enough to yield central details for every star, yet the overall impression is that of a slightly soft coin. |
|
1177 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $1,300.00 |
1908 Liberty. NGC MS-64.
|
Buttery-smooth luster glows nicely with an overtone of mint-green patina just discernible at the edge of the obverse. A gorgeous coin that is tantalizingly close to grading MS-65. |

1908 PCGS MS-63.
