Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 11:33 am I needed another coin to make up my Economy submission to PCGS so I added this one. It's a no-problem example but obviously far from mint state. What do you think PCGS assigned as the grade? Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 12:05 pm I'm going to say F-15, The letters in the shield are very worn. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 12:14 pm I like clicking on your threads, because I know there's always something I'll think is nice inside. Got to agree with echizento on this one - F15. Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 5:25 pm I am in total agreement with F15. LIBERTY not all there + wear commensurate with the grade. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 04/18/2009 8:07 pm I'm leaning toward VF20. If you get a break at all, it'll go VF. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 04/21/2009 12:56 am Perhaps I did get a break, since PCGS called this coin VF-25. I think the Carson City halves in general tend to have soft detail on the shield and LIBERTY so a coin with weak letters can still squeak into the VF category. I'll post another thread with a different CC half that went to PCGS in the same group. Thanks for the comments! Report this Post to the Staff
