smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2401 Posts	Posted 10/03/2026 12:28 pm My Son picked me up some coins for my Birthday recently. Thought this one looked good pretty good. Nice luster, but some carbon spots from the old holder he was in. Tell me what you think. Thanks for looking and commenting. smat Report this Post to the Staff

smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2401 Posts	Posted 10/04/2026 10:51 pm LOL...I was trying to pull off a "HumblePie" grading post... He's kinda tricky asking us for an opinion on a grade. If someone recognizes the Variety (he typically cherrypicks), he'll admit it..but until then he runs with it... Very fun and intriguing in my opinion. Maybe because this 59-D seemed like an ordinary modern (he's does the classics)...it didn't get very much scrutiny? Good job HGK3...you figured out what I was trying to play. Thanks for playing! smat "HumblePie" is one of our KA members... Edited by smat45 10/04/2026 10:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18944 Posts	Posted Today 3H 3M ago weak strike both sides. not sure what the green spots and shades are, I'm going with verdigris. it should be mitigated. I'm not 100% convinced the coin is uncirculated. the photos light and focus could be the issue. the area below the steps looks like light hairlines with broken luster. diagonal hairlines across the cheek and jaw. the other areas are not really showing signs of circulation so it is a conundrum as these could be from sliding around in a holder. I'm at AU58 or MS63. great RPM. cant miss that one. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19643 Posts	Posted Today 3H 0M ago Yes, very clear RPM. Given the images posted, I'm thinking MS62 max, possibly MS60. Report this Post to the Staff
