mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 03/13/2012 4:09 pm Hello, I'd give this one an AU-50. It could have gone into MS-60 had it not been for that hole around 11 AM on the obverse and the rim ding on the reverse. IMO, mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff
copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 03/13/2012 4:19 pm AU-50, but wouldn't be shocked if it went EF-45. Little too much wear on the high points of the leaves on the reverse and the hair above the ear on the obverse. Plus what mdpmedia pointed out. Report this Post to the Staff

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 03/13/2012 6:23 pm I will go with VF-35 details. The surfaces look a bit off to me like someone tried to remove some verdigris or corrosion. I think you did just fine at $20 even if it is a problem coin.
