Aref Valued Member United Arab Emirates 204 Posts	Posted 05/23/2023 09:26 am I'm grading this XF-Details. I'd like to know what others think. My goal was to get this way below market value. The thing is I don't even know what the market value for the coin is. On one hand, people have paid for the straight grade XF-40 slabbed anywhere between $86-$170. Mine is neither slabbed nor will it straight grade as XF-40 and I ended up getting it in an auction for $33. My questions are have I bought this well below market value? Would this coin be something that appreciates in value over time? I'm sorry for the low quality images. That's all I've got. I'll have to send better pictures and it'll be a few weeks from now.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18687 Posts	Posted 05/23/2023 09:33 am i'd call it XF details (cleaned damaged). the dig on the reverse K11-12 area is PMD plus several rim issues probably an ok price however I would never purchase a coin I was fairly certain was a details coin regardless of price. i'd rather have a straight lower grade coin. over time a details coin is not going to increase like a straight graded one Report this Post to the Staff
