Pictures are very blurry, so it is very hard to grade this one. Those lines on the obverse do look like cleaning lines in the photo. So I would call this a AU - Details Cleaned, until we get better pictures.

since you dont have this coin and are considering it, its hard enough to grade a coin from photos but when they are out of focus and the reverse photo is too small, I would not risk buying this coin. you have no idea what the surface look like or if the skin is completely original.

I would agree, poor photos & honestly at first glance I was thinking counterfeit so I definitely wouldnt risk buying this particular coin.
I've been collecting for a couple years... Favorite Coin's are Standing Liberty quarters, Working on my type set | Coffee, Corvettes, Coins & the CCF what could be better? |

Thank you for the replies. Seller has 30 day money back. May pull the trigger at $1100 and then take it to ICG and get their opinion. Definitely hard to make grade determination with photos and not seeing it in person.

I lean towards AU details, cleaned, but impossible to know for sure with these blurry pics. If he's selling for $1100, it's almost certain not to be a problem-free MS coin.

If they are selling for $1100, then the coin most certainly has issues.

Looks like a first glace fake to me...

AU details cleaned - pass at price level.

Thought it was fake at first glance. what kind of TPG holder is it in? |

Those who suspected fake are probably right. The date position doesn't match any known VAM for an 1893-O. |

I am glad I did not get chance to purchase. Someone else beat me to it. Thank you all. You all really know your coins!

I would question the authenticity at a first glance. Not an arm's length fake but it doesn't look good either. Pass.
