jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 4:56 pm Received this from a bullion dealer as a random date coin selection. Any grade opinions appreciated. Edited by jimbucks 06/06/2020 5:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 5:48 pm Looks like a low eye appeal EF, much better than what I would consider a bullion piece Report this Post to the Staff
jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 6:06 pm New pics. The close ups do not show the color, but the first 2 are representative of color. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 6:23 pm I'll say AU-53. Sounds like a good deal. Edited by Coinfrog 06/06/2020 6:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3655 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 11:20 pm AU-50, but I could see AU-53. Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 06/06/2020 11:44 pm Cool you got a Type 2 for a bullion piece. Looks AU to me too. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 06/07/2020 08:35 am Tough one since the coin is a bit dirty and is very weakly struck. I would say at least AU-53. I don't think gold tones so you might be able to improve the surfaces with some light conservation. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36780 Posts	Posted 06/07/2020 11:07 am Just some rubbing from bank to bank use. AU-55, possibly 58. Report this Post to the Staff
jimbucks Pillar of the Community United States 4692 Posts	Posted 06/09/2020 9:11 pm I did my own "conservation". A damp towel pat down, and the surface dirt came right off. Looks better. Any chance this might get a MS-6X designation? Report this Post to the Staff
suipakpaikungfu Pillar of the Community United States 992 Posts	Posted 06/09/2020 9:26 pm I would have left it as is. Looked better IMO. Technical grade AU50-53 to me. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 06/10/2020 07:32 am Obverse clearly has some rub so I think mid-AU is the right grade. Wouldn't surprise me to see it in a 58 holder though. The reverse looks MS which makes a strong case for high AU. Edited by fenton 06/10/2020 07:34 am Report this Post to the Staff
