paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 07/29/2015 05:34 am I'd give it a VG8/10 based on the obverse wear. Although most of "LIBERTY" is visible, many of the bust features are well worn. PG Report this Post to the Staff

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 07/29/2015 08:51 am Technical F-12, but I doubt anyone would pay F-12 money for it due to the overall lack of details, except for novices whose only coin collecting knowledge comes from the Red Book. Possibly a slightly misangled die strike on the obverse, making one half of it stronger than the other. I would pay VG-08 money for this coin, if I was ever interested in buying something like this that is. It is genuine, though. Report this Post to the Staff

bandsdean Pillar of the Community United States 2125 Posts	Posted 07/29/2015 6:36 pm Fine-12. Perhaps a small lamination at the #9 star. I like this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/29/2015 6:40 pm I like it too, but no way this is a Fine. VG-08 here. Report this Post to the Staff

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 07/29/2015 9:14 pm There does not appear to be enough detail in the hair to be VG-10. VG-8. Edited by Joseph7420 07/29/2015 9:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Jim_Shorts01 Valued Member United States 73 Posts	Posted 09/25/2015 12:43 am Sorry to bump the thread, but I was recently offered $100 for this coin. Is that a decent offer or low? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 09/25/2015 12:54 am FMV Numismedia has the value of a VG08 1912 S at $150. It's a fair offer, but a bit low, and I'd try to get the buyer up a bit. Just my opinion. A PCGS example sold for $134 in July. Report this Post to the Staff
