Get the picked cherry back from ANACS today. It was a Medium Letter (N-5) variety as I (and we) had surmised. Take a shot at the grade she received. I will post the results tomorrow evening.. Paleoguy

I'm afraid I haven't gotten the hang of taking photos through ANACS holders, but it's a really nice coin. I had posted it here before sending off for grading. This is the gold standard for the adage "buy the coin and not the slab".... Personally I would have jumped it two grade levels over what ANACS decided. Certainly there is some corrosion, but details are so sharp on this one, especially on the reverse which is the telling side of the coin. Anyway, due to minimal demand here is what they graded it as:

I would have said fine 15 corroded because of the porosity.
