Thank you, everybody.

I agree, Brent. I've been looking for this one in particular for a while, and when I saw it for $60 delivered, I had to jump on it. It's simply sublime.

I would agree with you both. I looked at it again tonight under my 10 x loupe, and to be honest, it really looks like it could be a 10. But it doesn't matter to me, really. My Yount cards will all be 9s except for the '75, which I might start off with an 8.5 on both the regular issue and the mini. There are too many other cards I want to own, and a half point isn't going to cost me sleep at night.
