sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 04/24/2015 03:08 am Split grade. Obv. F20 Rev. VF 30 cleaned. Net grade 20 or 25, depending if the lowest grade is taken, or the average grade is taken. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think the major auction houses take the lowest grade.

eagle_eye_18 Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 04/24/2015 3:18 pm Was your coin scanned in? Or photographed? It looks scanned. The dark/light areas probably show the "frosty" luster you are referring to. Based off of this I will say high end VF low end EF because of the presence of luster. Report this Post to the Staff

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 04/26/2015 2:11 pm Tell me your reasoning for stating this coin is "polished up" or "cleaned"? Besides someone stating it or it looks like it to you. It looks more white in hand I don't know why it looks pink in the scan. Edited by buddy16cat 04/26/2015 2:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
