The coin does look cleaned, but it still has eye appeal to me.
If it was mine it would go into an airtite and I would keep her.
Nice old coin with Unc. deatails. But dont waste you money on getting it graded.

Quote:NO just my ANA membership #. There are searchable numbers on NGC and PCGS slabs. ANACS is working on it.... Near as I can tell, ANACS has it now. I'm not ready to consign this one to the "Details" heap just yet. The images just aren't detailed enough. You may note striations on the reverse periphery, particularly near DST and ERI; these are known artifacts for this mintage and can even extend into the devices. |

It is hard to be sure. I would love to see it in bright sunshine. I see what you mean Dave but I have to lean toward details...

What does concern me is what appears to be small scratches top of cap.
Can you get a more detailed pic?

Thanks on the pointer to the reply process. This is turning into quite the learning experience. I put a flash on the camera using my 100mm macro lens and the photos look quite different. Lesson on this is I have a lot to learn about optimal lighting. When I uploaded these photos to the computer I had to go downstairs and get the coin because I thought I had ruined it somehow. What appear as black smudges in the photos are scrapes on the coin. A lot of scratches but the luster present is not from them. Also seems to be a dye crack on the reverse between the a and the l in half. To the naked eye, this coin does not show what we're seeing in these pics. Its actually one the most 'perfect' coins I've got.... I guess that would be perfect in eye appeal. I really appreciate everyone's input. Get ready for a shock....   I tried uploading larger file sizes that give a better feel for the coin, but needed to reduce to under 100 k file size. Some detail was lost.... |

Yep, cleaned without a doubt.
This level of preservation should have ample luster remaining.

No doubt, cleaned and scratched. Still a nice coin for someone with a 7070 type set.
