MINT_MARQ Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 06/26/2010 09:24 am It has some strange toning. The obverse has some blueish tone that is hard to capture in a photo. The rev that was sitting on black foam for 20+ years is toned a nasty grey/black. I am thinking about selling this one soon, and want to make sure I price it accordingly. Thanks for the help....My guess using PCGS photo grade is VF25 but the toning could be a negative. Not sure and that is why I am here Thanks for your help Ken Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 06/26/2010 09:52 am I'm going to say VF-20 for this one, IMO there is too much overall wear to grade VF-25. Report this Post to the Staff
mattbrowning7 Valued Member United States 321 Posts	Posted 06/26/2010 2:38 pm it looks like that black foam took its toll on it. I think the type of toning is a negative. All the little green areas look like pvc damage to me. I have a morgan toned this orange/brown color and I've been told it could be pvc damage. edit: I would say VF 20 details Edited by mattbrowning7 06/26/2010 2:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
