Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6406 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 12:20 pm Looks like MS detail but I can't tell if the coin has been cleaned. So many Flying Eagle cents have been "improved" with results ranging from extremely subtle to totally nasty. A coin like this should be vetted by a grading service to get a professional confirmation of problem-free status. For what it's worth, looks pretty nice to me! Report this Post to the Staff
Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 3:56 pm Rick only charges $4 to attribute and grade the coin. If he doesn't see any evidence of cleaning, then I would have him send it in to a TPG. He includes the attribution with the coin when he sends it in. Much cheaper than paying variety fee and taking a $35-$50 gamble with a TPG. Just my Two Cents... Edited by Drsandman2 09/07/2012 3:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 6:15 pm I find it hard to determine cleaning from pics of FEs. I see a nicely struck, low MS coin ~MS62 Report this Post to the Staff

david29 Valued Member United States 432 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 9:18 pm I would say AU 58 also. The obverse looks very nice, I cant get a good feel for the reverse from the pictures. Report this Post to the Staff

gustafsa New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 09/11/2012 7:08 pm I tried adjusting the white balance and it seems like that didn't work either. Looks like this coin will be getting sent to Rick Snow in the near future. :) Report this Post to the Staff
