grendel,
I don't have a greysheet handy for slqs, but unless I'm missing something, if you hunt you should be able to find one like this for $200 or less.

Oh ok, I just assumed that it is worth alot, mind you I'm a poor uni bludger :P |

I did not see any wear on this coin at all. I'm hoping for an MS64 Full Head from ANACS on this one. Not to get away from the family orientation of this forum, but even the nipple is visible under magnification.

Yeah, I do see what looks like wear on the fringes of the feathers, but those aren't the high points (could be the image) and I don't see anything on the knee, maybe a bit on the highest point of the shield. It's a nice strike but the fields are a little scuffy, especially on the reverse. Depends on what kind of the day the graders are having between AU/UNC (bogey on the 18th hole would not be in your favor) but I'm guessing 62 mainly for the strike and luster. Here's a 64 FH I had once (please forgive the lousy scan through the holder)   So what did yours end up getting? |

Hi Folks! It came back from ANACS an AU58. One of the best AU58's I have ever seen. The all important "Anatomical" detail was very, very good. It sold for about $285.00, strong money for an AU58. Weak strikes of the sheild are fairly common on this type of coin as Rick pointed out. By the way quarterfan, your coin is a good example of why this one came back an AU! So,at any rate, I guess the graders had a tough day on the links! Mike  |

Wait a minute, I thought this was Bobby131313's coin? I know I'm new here, you're all messin' around with me aren't you? [:p]
Yes, $285 is awesome for an AU for this coin. Congrats!

Wow... $285 is very strong money for not hitting the MS grade, although it is arguably better than that. Very nice example.
Going back on what Susan said, maybe a FN designation will be soon for a full nipple? ha.

Quarterfan, Sorry for the confusion. Bobby and I sell coins on consignment and we sell for Mike. This was his coin and we sold it for him. |

Given the butt-kicking I've been getting on ebay lately, I'm tempted to go that route myself. |

Lol! At first I thought you had more rum in you than I have but, yeah, now I see what you're talking about. Dunno, just a peculiarity of the coin I guess. I don't have it anymore to check it out. |

Hi Everyone! I need to make a very large correction on the actual sale price of the 1917 SLQ. It sold for $203.50 not $285.00 as I stated above!(Thanks Susan for keeping much better records than me!!) I have sold off about 70K worth of coins from my collection in the last few years so I tend to get them confused from time to time. Sorry...  "Old Uncle Mike" |
