Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 07/29/2011 8:20 pm it looks MS to me. 1879-P wasn't the sharpest struck coins from the get go and the dies were used until they just couldn't be used anymore so its a little hard to tell by a photo between a AU and a MS61-62 because of this. But I am pretty certain this one hasn't ever circulated Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 07/29/2011 11:28 pm I'm gonna slightly disagree with Bryan. There doesn't really look to be any wear on the coin, but neither are there any obvious bagmarks, while there are a lot of marks. The conclusion to me is, this coin deserves AU58 (only because of the marks I can't explain) but will only see AU55 if submitted for grading due to the quantity of marks. Honestly, this one kinda baffles me. Is there an AU59? Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 07/29/2011 11:33 pm This would be a coin I would have to see in hand. This coin could either be a very nice AU-58 or a MS-62. If I had to choose I would lean slightly towards the unc grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Sidekick-CA Pillar of the Community United States 509 Posts	Posted 07/30/2011 08:20 am Thanks guys. Guess I'll mark it as AU58. Not planning to submit it. Was just home-slabbing and labeling some coins I had in airtites. This one didn't look right at AU50. Don't know how I ever ended up with that grade to start with... Report this Post to the Staff
