I just got this 1912 LWC in from Harlen Berk. I love this coin! What do you think it grades?

Thad, this one is a close relative to the 1945-S you sold me a few weeks back.

Thanks,












JimR

Love the toning! Did I say?


Humor is the ability to see three sides to one coin.

AU-58

Dont ask me where the rub is because I cant see it with the coin in hand but that's what it was graded at.

Hey, maybe that means you got an MS coin at an AU price!

Are you thinking about playing the crack it and submit it game?

( edit )
Not that it matters, what brand of slab does it live in now?

AU That coin had a really bad day at the graders. I would really like to see that one up close and personal. I guess they saw something in that left wheat ear and even though it does not look like wear from the pics they could not bring them selves to a MS grade. If you don't mind, who did you send it to?

They said it was AU-58?

That's impossible to tell from pictures. It sure looks like an MS coin to me. I'm sure you got a great deal on it if that's the grade HB gave it. I would have paid AU money for that in a split second!

Jim,

It was purchased raw. It would be interesting to see if it came back MS from a TPG. I truly think it could go MS on any given day. But alas it is snuggled away in the Dansco where I think it will stay for long time.

So Thad at $27.00 you agree this purchase was a no brainer

Berk had that priced at $27! Someone is going to lose their job. That's a steal.
