kookoox10 Pillar of the Community United States 1054 Posts	Posted 05/02/2013 4:25 pm Hi guys, I wanted to get your thoughts on my newest acquisition. Now I'll let you know, I'm posting the seller's pics because they represent the surfaces and toning perfectly to muster a grade range. It looks absolutely amazing in hand with no evidence of cleaning or whizzing. Any input is greatly appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12330 Posts	Posted 05/02/2013 9:31 pm Nice coin! (And nice images!) My eyes see a nice AU coin based on what appears to be wear/metal loss on Isabella's cheek, eyelid and collar. I also see similar wear on the reverse on the woman's cheek/jaw and knees. My observations are based on the color difference seen in the images; they show a change in the coin's surface. You can confirm/disprove my observations based on the coin's luster. If the luster is unbroken over the areas I mentioned then what I am seeing is a result of the lighting used to image the coin. In any case, it is an attractive example of the Isabella and a nice pickup! Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved. Report this Post to the Staff
