IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 20981 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 1:00 pm A very nice AU-53, maybe even 55. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 7595 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 1:03 pm 53 implies some wear. Where are you seeing it IGE? Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 7595 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 1:09 pm I think the coin is also fully struck with early state dies. Report this Post to the Staff
Sharkman Valued Member United States 332 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 1:24 pm 53-55. There seems to be some rub on obverse and reverse leaves and the 2, but could just be striking weakness. Could be lighting, but vertical shield lines look badly struck, getting worse from left to right. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Pillar of the Community United States 7595 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 1:34 pm Not sure what you are referring to. The vertical lines on the shield are all fully split into 3 distinct bars in all the strips. That is as fully struck as it gets. How would you handle a coin in circulation so that it wears only in the leaves, leaving the high point intact? Report this Post to the Staff

Sharkman Valued Member United States 332 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 2:10 pm N.S. Your close up photo makes your point. And obviously, if there are higher spots on the coin than the leaves, you are right on that one, too. Because you are correct on my areas of concern, I've got to say you found yourself a darned nice coin. $46.50 ? If you paid that for this coin at a garage sale, estate sale or the like, you are to be commended for your hunting prowess. Quite the trophy! Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 48970 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 2:16 pm I'll say AU-55. Just doesn't look crisp enough for MS. Report this Post to the Staff
Numis-Northerner Valued Member Canada 485 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 3:10 pm Couldn't grade higher than AU without knowING how the lustre is, however I'm somewhat concerned about that line through the motto, could it be a scratch? Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 20981 Posts	Posted 11/12/2019 3:17 pm Quote: 53 implies some wear. Where are you seeing it IGE? There are some breaks in the surface color. The photos are not sharp even to know for sure. I can see this going 55 now, but I am just not seeing an MS coin. Maybe your new photos when it arrives will be better. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Pillar of the Community United States 8895 Posts	Posted 11/13/2019 10:20 am tough one. I think its better than AU55 but not MS so I have to go with AU58 Report this Post to the Staff
