slowaltima Valued Member United States 203 Posts	Posted 11/13/2012 9:33 pm Not an expert, but that looks to be about Fine. Surfaces look original, no cleaning that I can spot. Multiple dings though on the coin. Way over graded and way over priced as well. Report this Post to the Staff
LogPotato Valued Member United States 292 Posts	Posted 11/13/2012 9:45 pm Ugly coin, over-priced, over-graded by seller. Yep, about the norm for most ebay coins. Report this Post to the Staff
ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4423 Posts	Posted 11/13/2012 9:47 pm IMHO, VF-20 / VF-35, obv./rev. The reverse motto is quite strong. I've seen many a Seated dollar, wherein the reverse appeared much stronger a strike, as seems to be the case here. Report this Post to the Staff
tomtom777 Valued Member United States 243 Posts	Posted 11/13/2012 10:07 pm I was thinking the same, about a VF overall. Thanks for the replies. Hopefully no one buys this, but from what I have seen in the past, people will buy anything on the bay. Report this Post to the Staff

Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 11/14/2012 4:13 pm Definitely way overgraded. Report this Post to the Staff
smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 11/14/2012 7:35 pm It happens even from the experts. Certainly not more than VF. If someone actually pays that for it, it's their own fault. Report this Post to the Staff
