panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18753 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 10:41 am I think it could go VF20 Env Damage. someone took a hammer to this poor lady or it got run over by a horse and buggy. how sad is that. Report this Post to the Staff
YoshiRules Pillar of the Community United States 602 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 10:55 am Env. Damage or not, it is a nice find. Wish I can get lucky with a find like this in a junk bin :) F-15 to VF-20 is a good range. Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 1:13 pm Some rim hits, but no corrosion or verdigris to suggest environmental damage. And I would grade it higher than F15; that smooth area on the reverse from 12:00 to 2:00 isn't wear, it's a die bulge, as struck. Report this Post to the Staff

regularguy Valued Member United States 187 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 7:55 pm If it was me, before a considering a grade, I would want to know if it was authentic. Any one else have the same thought? Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 11:13 pm It's only not real if its a die transfer copy or electrotype of a genuine S-138. That then inexplicably was given a bunch of rim hits. I would say genuine, unless there's an electrotype seam around the edge. Report this Post to the Staff
