otto Pillar of the Community United States 1326 Posts	Posted 08/26/2018 10:58 pm I'd like to verify the type. I'm pretty sure it's an L. Thanks. Grade opinion would also be nice. Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 08/27/2018 12:58 am I'm no expert, but after making some visual comparisons and trying to account for wear, it very well may be an L type. For grade, I'll say G-4. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4420 Posts	Posted 08/27/2018 3:50 pm Yep, Raymo's correct .... rounded bust and not an "L" variety. Here's a close-up pic of Otto's coin .... Edited by ExoGuy 08/27/2018 7:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/27/2018 5:49 pm Right, those images are identical. The pointed bust can lose sharpness with extreme wear as on this coin. Could we see a sharper close-up of the bust tip and the ribbon area (enlarging the original doesn't help much)? Edited by Coinfrog 08/27/2018 5:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 08/27/2018 10:07 pm No L. Grade is Good. Appears to be struck with noticeable die misalignment.
