Murphy Valued Member United States 381 Posts	Posted 06/09/2013 3:50 pm Can you please help me grade this 1972-P Type 2 Eisenhower? I'm not very good at grading and I'm thinking about sending it to ANACS if it will grade high enough to justify the cost. Thanks for all the help. I hope this is not too many photos.

BadToTheBone Pillar of the Community United States 1795 Posts	Posted 06/09/2013 11:52 pm All Eisenhowers are nice coins but I wouldn't give yours more that a MS60/61 at best. Look at your coin carefully and note how the face is marked, low luster if any and marks in the background fields both obverse and reverse. I may be hard in my judgement but thats what I do with my own coins. I would spend my money on a better grade coin myself. Good luck with whatever avenue you pursue. Report this Post to the Staff
Murphy Valued Member United States 381 Posts	Posted 06/10/2013 12:07 am Thanks BTTB. I also noticed all the marks as well as the ding in the rim at about 5 o'clock. I tried to compare it to pics on The Ike Group's website and became even more confused. Report this Post to the Staff

Murphy Valued Member United States 381 Posts	Posted 06/13/2013 2:54 pm Thanks everyone. I didn't think it would grade high enough to justify slabbing it. I decided to just put it in a 2x2 and throw it in a box of other coins I'm saving. I'll keep looking for the next one. I should have another $1000 bag waiting at the bank for me today. I just have to get there before they close. Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 06/16/2013 3:39 pm Lower AU coin. Not worth a slab. You can get up to $50.00 for it at the bay. Report this Post to the Staff
Murphy Valued Member United States 381 Posts	Posted 06/16/2013 6:36 pm Thanks Indian1, I didn't know it was worth that much. That will really make me think twice about selling it now. I can see why FTB says these are better to find than the common date morgan or Peace dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
