Was playing around on the camera this morning and came across this. I had broken it out of the slab a while back to put in my album. I thought it was pretty cool though.

Interesting, you may want to inspect the reverse again real closely. I show an S-VDB with the "IBERTY" obverse listed in a book but not the plain S. Nice looking coin.

And just why would anyone bust a coin out of a slab to put it into an album? Why???

The reason I done it was for the fact that I have no intentions of selling anytime soon. I enjoy having the coins in an album. Don't get me wrong whenever the time comes way down the road to sale I have ever intentions of having quite a few of my coins graded.

I guess in short it just boils down to personal preference.
