BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 12/10/2011 6:55 pm The pics are not too good so there's no way to evaluate the surfaces. Looks like it could be AU+ to low MS. At that price, it sold at AU money. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 12/10/2011 7:48 pm It looks like it is at least mid AU and there is a good chance that it is MS. Pictures showing the luster would be needed to give a more accurate opinion. Report this Post to the Staff

Pictures showing the luster would be needed to give a more accurate opinion. Exactly, looks good it's all dependent on the luster and any luster breaks or rubs.
