At that time it WAS the most ingenious move ever, and the stories that the patrons showered Marshall with gold pieces was confirmed, that's how original and thought provoking that move was!
I think its beautiful for its time and place, no doubt on that to me !

Alledgedly it was the folks who bet on Levitsky who threw the coins in disgust.

Most over-rated move in chess history...
Easy, latest move by my opponent.
