bbddbb10 Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 03/08/2013 12:01 am I am going to say AU 55. The top of the wing looks like it is just a light strike, which is common with these coins, but if it is wear, it would probably grade a little lower than that. Report this Post to the Staff

Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 03/08/2013 12:16 am Great coin and thanks for sharing. This date is well known for the "broken wing tip" and "missing wing tip" hubs. I would suggest checking the obverse lettering for doubling or tripling. Cheers. Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 03/08/2013 01:20 am Based on the details I can see--easily a AU55 or better! Report this Post to the Staff

D Pillar of the Community Canada 899 Posts	Posted 03/09/2013 1:33 pm Nice coin.....I'm also in the AU58 range Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 03/09/2013 8:40 pm I'm in at AU55 I'm in agreement with bbddbb10 on the light strike. The TPG's will take strike in to consideration on grading and not go 58 on it. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!
