mattbrowning7 Valued Member United States 321 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 01:58 am Nice! cleaned G 4 is my assumption. Don't see these too often at all, thanks for sharing Report this Post to the Staff
ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 02:28 am Good-4. Does not look cleaned to me, but I think mattbrowning7 is seeing what appear to be parallel lines, which could indicate a wiping in the past. Report this Post to the Staff
mattbrowning7 Valued Member United States 321 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 10:29 am ACE Mike, there's the lines, but I also think there is an unnatural shiny look to it. Edited by mattbrowning7 10/24/2010 10:30 am Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 1:30 pm I do see the lines, but it doesn't have a cleaned look to it. I have seen much worse in problem free slabs. Report this Post to the Staff
carmykle Pillar of the Community United States 2448 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 11:00 pm Looks like someone started to whizz it but then realized if wasn't worth the effort. G4 is a good evaluation regardless of the striations. Report this Post to the Staff
ACE Mike Valued Member United States 438 Posts	Posted 10/25/2010 01:01 am I noticed the shine to it, but attributed that to a rather intense light source close to the coin. It has a fairly natural gray color which made me think that it has not been cleaned, at least not beyond a light wipe. As always, easier to tell in person than with a photo.

coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 10/25/2010 9:54 pm Probably was slid against a surface or something. This is close to G but would probably get graded AG-3 actually : ( Report this Post to the Staff
