echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/25/2009 2:20 pm Some wear on the beard, mustache, and hair otherwise a very nice coin. I agree AU-50 though it might grade a little higher. Report this Post to the Staff

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 01/25/2009 3:03 pm Choice XF, IMO there is more than just the lightest evidence of wear. There is obvious wear to that side burn and hair and moderate overall contact wear to all the high points of this coin and slightly flattened spots of wear. There is also some foreign matter between the lettering, like some kind of soil or grime that most likely came from some handling. Report this Post to the Staff

snowman Pillar of the Community United States 1840 Posts	Posted 01/25/2009 8:09 pm I'd call it XF and drop it a grade to VF due to the cleaning. Krause says $7.50 in VF and $15.00 in XF. This seems reasonable considering nearly 23 million were made. Report this Post to the Staff
manila galleon trade Pillar of the Community Spain 1361 Posts	Posted 01/25/2009 9:00 pm I can accept XF+ but not VF for cleaning. You can not down grade because of cleaning. Can you? Edited by manila galleon trade 01/25/2009 9:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff
manila galleon trade Pillar of the Community Spain 1361 Posts	Posted 01/25/2009 9:12 pm by the way the edge of this coin is also gradable. Por la patria, rey y dios, I think I don't have the coin on hand. Report this Post to the Staff
