Anybody care to guess the grade? Think it would slab clean? Plucked off ebay for about $23.

I'm in AU53-55 - luster + nice details, not so much wear.

Beautiful coin... common date in great shape, so why do you want to slab it?

If it goes 55/58 it would be a pop 1 with 3 finer. http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/145622I think it is a lock 55, shot 58. I have an unattributed 64 of the same variety en route as well, so I would own two of the six finest known of the variety.

I find value at anywhere from 15-28 bucks XF to AU58.

I don't see any values for a 46 DDO, I was going straight up 46.

FTB,
Very nice pick up!
For what it's worth, CPG has it valued at $70.00 in MS 60.- 5th Edition, Vol 2- Pg 279.

Wow I have got to know what makes this coin worth 150 dollars. It will only bring melt value and maybe not even that. If it was a DD it would be on the back, but it's NOT.

Thanks for the info Chuck, however I don't think CPG realizes how rare these are in higher grades. 4 known MS examples (5 if you include my recent unattributed pick), compared to, say, the '46 DDR, which has something like 100+ MS examples known at PCGS alone. I think as more people start to take an interest in WLH varieties, this will start to become more valuable. JS, this is the doubled die obverse... I've already turned down an offer of $100 for this coin. Here's the major PUP's off another example (XF-AU) I own.

Quote: Good luck with that. Nice attitude given that I was attempting to share something about the variety with you. As I've said, I already turned down a $100 offer from somebody who owns a PCGS AU53 right now, and wanted this for an upgrade to his set. Part of your inability to understand the price/value of the coin is the simple fact that you cannot grade the coin from my photographs as you're not used to seeing them. It is not XF. It is easily AU, and more than likely a 55-58, as I have stated earlier. It does carry the burden of being a slightly weak strike compared to many other '46's, but the lack of a quality strike doesn't drop a coin from AU to XF. Here is the original ebay photo I cherried the coin with. Perhaps this will give you a better idea of the luster the coin has.
