After that last pic of the OBV, I humbly bow to the original evaluation Hadlydog had in the last thread about this piece. This forum is a great place to learn!

Smoke1439- are you saying that photos can lead to false readings of coins, or are you saying that you now realize that you have a lot AU's because of these photos.

I think he is saying he bought coins thinking they were straight grade based on the photos only to find when he got the coins they were obviously cleaned. The lighting angle in your first photos hid many of the hairline scratches that a harsh cleaning brings. Your second set of photos had the lighting angle different and the light made those scratches pop out in those photos.

IndianGoldEagle Thanks
Do you think this coin would have been an MS grade, all things the same minus the hairline scratches?
