Silver101 Pillar of the Community Canada 1082 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 5:09 pm Here's a coin I'm following on ebay - photos are screenshots from the listing. A little weakness through the 1874 but otherwise an attractive coin. I'm thinking this is VF20-30 or thereabouts. I don't see anything that indicates it's been messed with. Any thoughts coin sages?

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9909 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 6:14 pm VF20 Distracting rim ding at G in REGINA "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Not a details coin, I don't think it coin has been cleaned in such a manner as to devalue it although it certainly has been dipped.

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 02/01/2022 9:14 pm Based on US grading standards I'll agree with the VF-20. I don't agree with the cleaned/dipped. But based on what I know about Canadian grading standards, IMO they'd grade it F-12. Report this Post to the Staff
TheDeductible Pillar of the Community Canada 851 Posts	Posted 02/02/2022 07:18 am Beautiful coin. I'd say VF-30 with no evidence of dipping. This coin is in superb condition with very little wear. It has been protected well from the elements and only saw circulation for a short while over 100 years ago. This coin is way above a F grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Silver101 Pillar of the Community Canada 1082 Posts	Posted 02/03/2022 2:24 pm Well, I bought it. $130...we shall see when I have it in hand. It's somewhere between F15 and VF30 meaning that I either got patently ripped off or the deal of the century. Sounds about par for the course.... Report this Post to the Staff
