DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9873 Posts	Posted 07/26/2016 8:41 pm VG8 Too much wear on the leaves and crown for anything higher. There must be a punchline coming. Is it higher grade? Is it OBV5? "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 07/26/2016 8:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9873 Posts	Posted 07/26/2016 9:30 pm Very few "collectors" of coins in this price range care that the 3 is exceptionally well struck. Their money is riding on the number at the upper left corner of the slab. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 07/27/2016 10:07 am Can't grade from just reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
1cent Pillar of the Community Canada 1051 Posts	Posted 08/10/2016 03:33 am VG-8 or VG-10, assuming the wear on the reverse is consistent with the obverse. Not the ideal way of grading. Quote: Very few "collectors" of coins in this price range care that the 3 is exceptionally well struck. Probably true, but it's a nice bonus. Report this Post to the Staff
TheCoinHunter Pillar of the Community Canada 1461 Posts	Posted 08/10/2016 4:35 pm I think it would get a VG-10 because of the crown. The bottom of the coin seem closer to G6 but that could be the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10463 Posts	Posted 08/11/2016 4:57 pm These coins tend to be convex on the reverse and concave on the obverse. If the reverse looks that good, the obverse should be F-12 or better...
