cboyera Valued Member United States 308 Posts	Posted 02/06/2016 8:46 pm I purchased thinking AU with a nice toned look for my Dansco but after thinking a bit with the historic weak strike at the New Orleans mint and my inability to tell the difference between weak strike and wear, I figured I'd turn it over to the experts at CCF to help me a bit and to learn more!

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/07/2016 12:08 am At first I thought it was overly cleaned, especially on the reverse, but the overall roughness of the design and that big pit above E in WE makes me suspect the coin may not be authentic. If it's real, it's been wiped/cleaned, low AU details.

cboyera Valued Member United States 308 Posts	Posted 02/07/2016 3:47 pm The black on the back above the "we" is a mark and not a pit. Report this Post to the Staff

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 02/08/2016 12:46 pm AU details, harshly cleaned; hairlines and pockets of toning that the cloth missed show the cleaning. Edited by fenton 02/08/2016 12:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
rgl1951 New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 02/08/2016 3:02 pm EF45 Details cleaned. The breast is too worn to be AU IMHO Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 02/09/2016 08:57 am Nut uncommon for breast feathers to be worn down in an AU-53 or lower coin. Here's a 53 from PCGS photograde http://www.PCGS.com/images/photogra...rgan-53r.jpg Report this Post to the Staff
