RENNES Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 It seems difficult to find many other examples on the market!Especially from a trusty source with decent images grading above VF. All good reasons as to why it could command a high premium!Never going to happen but if it comes back MS60 from PCGSI would be very happy with that.. Quote
