I'll post the grade that it got after a few guesses to see if you're as good as ANACS Image: anacs1.jpg 71.03 KB Image: anacs2.jpg 89.82 KB. p.s. the obverse is darker than the reverse. update, took two more pics with better results Edited by Sleaklight 10/23/2007 4:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 10/23/2007 4:19 pm Hi Sleaklight. Nice coin, and I am grading it MS-62. It has very nice detail, but thre seems to be a hit on the W in we and a fairly heavy scar just above the date that hurts the obverse. On the reverse, the scratching (?) just above the VDB really hurts it. In fact I am tempted to move it back to AU. If the marks are on the holder, everything goes up as I would call the detail 65.

justjimrob Valued Member United States 330 Posts	Posted 10/23/2007 5:07 pm Much better. I will now say MS-62 RB. I think the obv. scratch above the date, the obv. rim nick at 6:00 and the rev. scratches above the V.D.B. will keep it below a 63, but who knows. Very nice example. Jim Report this Post to the Staff
