amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 01/23/2014 10:19 pm Not in my opinion.. Hair above ear, coronet and cheek indicate wear. Too many little dings. I would call it VF35....TPG XF. May be the lighting but color looks a bit funky? Report this Post to the Staff
jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3168 Posts	Posted 01/23/2014 10:25 pm sellers pics do make the color look a bit orangish. I bought an 1849 a couple weeks ago from same seller and the coin was a nice light brown in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 01/23/2014 10:34 pm Almost AU. I'd say XF-40 or 45. I suspect it may not have original surfaces. Report this Post to the Staff
jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3168 Posts	Posted 01/23/2014 10:38 pm do you think so because of the color? Report this Post to the Staff

patrick Pillar of the Community United States 560 Posts	Posted 01/24/2014 12:24 am I see too much wear on this one for an AU. I would go with XF40. Report this Post to the Staff

jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3168 Posts	Posted 01/26/2014 1:08 pm nobody commented on the scratch by the neck on obverse. Not sure if would be gradeable because of that. Amazingly I did not notice this while bidding. Seller has not shipped it yet and I am thinking that scratch would be bothersome to me. Any thoughts? Also not sure of resale value if I did try to resell later. Report this Post to the Staff
