fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 12:44 pm Current bid $275. About 15 bidders. But may have a premium for toning so I don't think I'm giving the grade away just yet. Nobody yet perfect including the (+) designation. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5691 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 1:30 pm There's only one significant bag mark, on the reverse, so I guess a 66+ is possible. But I don't really like the toning, and I usually like toned coins. Definitely not for me at that price. Report this Post to the Staff

Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 5:14 pm If this did grade MS-66+ I'm gonna be really disappointed. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3677 Posts	Posted 08/08/2020 7:37 pm Nice one. Typical soft New Orleans strike. The obverse has a minor ding near the nose and another small one on the cheek. There are minor contact marks in the hair above the ear and on the cap. The fields are beautiful. The rest is toning. I'm at MS-66 obverse. The reverse has a lot of chatter, including one fairly deep contact mark SE of the eagle's left wing (our visual right). I can't quite see MS-65 on the reverse, but MS-64* would fit better. I'd net it on technical grading to MS-65, and bump it to MS-65* as an upward eye appeal adjustment. Report this Post to the Staff

fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 08/09/2020 10:13 am I agree with the technical grade. I think it got the (+) for the rather remarkable obverse toning. Edited by fenton 08/09/2020 10:13 am Report this Post to the Staff
