cownas22 Pillar of the Community United States 1055 Posts	Posted 09/14/2009 3:20 pm I came across this coin while searching ebay this week while searching for a seated w/ motto quarter for my type set. Owner has it listed at $199. Owner grades it AU/MS Beauty. What would you properly grade it? P.S. I did not buy this coin! Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 09/14/2009 3:38 pm Looks harshly cleaned and scratched, very nice detail on the reverse. Might have made MS grade without the scratches. I'm going to grade this at AU-55 damaged. Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 09/14/2009 3:54 pm AU-50 details harshly cleaned/damaged. Not worth anything nearly the listing price imo. Report this Post to the Staff
artdio Pillar of the Community 1844 Posts	Posted 09/14/2009 7:25 pm would have made AU55 without the harsh cleaning Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 09/15/2009 02:31 am What a mess! Scratched, cleaned, dipped and overdipped, nasty. You might as well drill a hole through the center and spoon it into a ring at this point. Worth maybe $20 to a collector, maybe a bit more if you want a really good example of what NOT to do to a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
