rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 03:22 am WOW! Awesome coin! I'd grade MS-63 for a Seated Lib coin. The fields seem to have an odd finish that wraps around the stars from about 9 to 12 o'clock positions. Maybe someone more familiar can come on and tell us whether these are from the die.

nod2003 Pillar of the Community United States 3294 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 08:56 am I don't see any wear, but it has the look of a coin that was lightly cleaned and retoned, so I am thinking MS details Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 09:35 am I will go with AU-58+. I think I see just the slightest hint of wear on the right knee. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 10:00 am I don't think it has wear, but I agree with a POSSIBLE old wiping/dipping, but maybe not enough to get it a details grade. It still has tons of luster. Report this Post to the Staff
VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 10:40 am I'd say AU-58 also. Report this Post to the Staff
rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 4:11 pm The area with possible wear on the knee is a common area for Seated Lib dies to have 'soft' details. I'm sticking to MS judging by shield, clasp, and Eagle. All in all, amazing coin! Report this Post to the Staff
JackB Pillar of the Community United States 1064 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 4:17 pm The toning is a bit odd, I'd have to say cleaned at some time... Report this Post to the Staff
Chewyduck Valued Member United States 158 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 4:24 pm Beautiful coin, I'd go high AU all day. Report this Post to the Staff
lorax Valued Member United States 162 Posts	Posted 09/24/2011 10:33 pm It looks like there is wear on the front of the hair. I'd say AU. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 09/24/2011 11:47 pm Very nice! Looks like the slightest amount of wear or contact marks on the highest points of the eagle. That and the little hairs in the fields might hold it to AU58. Still one of the nicest I have seen. Did you pick it up raw or bust it loose? Report this Post to the Staff
BrickellCat Pillar of the Community United States 558 Posts	Posted 09/25/2011 12:33 am I got this one raw on ebay. I purchased it about a year ago from Randell Holder. I've forgotten what he called the grade on his listing. EDIT: By the way. Edited by BrickellCat 09/25/2011 12:36 am Report this Post to the Staff
