1796NoPole Valued Member United States 235 Posts	Posted 10/05/2018 10:53 pm 282851867648 This looks like an excellent deal on its face, but I have a heavy suspicion that the coin is polished and AT'd. What does the community think? I definitely hope not; it sure is gorgeous. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Bedrock of the Community 10197 Posts	Posted 10/05/2018 11:04 pm For that money I would ask for better pix from seller, if he gives you the same, walk away. The overglare is hiding something, a two toned bad cleaning I would suspect. It does appear whizzed. I don't like the difference between the sides, reverse may be OK, but front shows circulation...unbalanced coin. Edited by Crazyb0 10/05/2018 11:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff
slapsshot Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 10/05/2018 11:04 pm It is really nice, not so sure that it's been cleaned, but it looks like something is on surface of coin, possibly dipped? Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Pillar of the Community United States 9328 Posts	Posted 10/05/2018 11:31 pm Looks polished or maybe coated. This is a circulated coin with problems. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
SilverDollar2017 Pillar of the Community United States 8715 Posts	Posted 10/06/2018 12:00 am Looks like a problem coin to me. Report this Post to the Staff
Slider23 Pillar of the Community United States 2637 Posts	Posted 10/06/2018 12:00 am There is a reason the coin is not in a TPG holder and with photos that can not be graded. The coin is most likely an AU Details. The value is around $450. Pass, the coin is not a bargain. Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Bedrock of the Community United States 13621 Posts	Posted 10/06/2018 07:47 am Stand clear of this one . Some jerk tried to make a key IHC better looking by polishing and buffing up this coin . What a shame that WAS once a beautiful reverse . Proud Member of The Black Sheep Squadron ! Report this Post to the Staff
kanga Pillar of the Community United States 4726 Posts	Posted 10/06/2018 08:42 am IMO the decision is simple. For that amount of money it HAS to be slabbed. Especially since it looks suspect. Describe it as if there were no picture. Picture it as if there were no description. Report this Post to the Staff
