Bababooey Valued Member United States 374 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 02:37 am This was the flip it came in. Was this optimistic thinking on the part of the guy (or gal) who sold this to me? Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 03:51 am Not just optimistic but possibly fraudulent. Spending two minutes with PCGS photograde would clarify that this does not make good, let alone Vg-F. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6399 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 11:48 am I don't see a serious cleaning issue given the wear. Obverse is AG, reverse is maybe G-6. The small cut on M of AMERICA is a minor distraction. Seems like a decent filler for this scarce date. Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 12:38 pm The updated pics clarified the cleaning issue......not cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 3:50 pm Agree AG-03 and just a straight-out deception on the grade. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18749 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 8:45 pm Maybe they were grading the reverse Report this Post to the Staff
Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 01/26/2016 9:20 pm It looks G-4 to me. Report this Post to the Staff

johnny676767 Pillar of the Community United States 522 Posts	Posted 01/27/2016 9:06 pm Reverse is almost better (minus the hit)than the VG-8 pic in my ANA book. The obverse is weaker than the AG-3 pic. Net at G-4 Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 01/27/2016 10:17 pm G-06 slider. The obverse may be worn, but the reverse has nice full rims, and has strong detail. Report this Post to the Staff
