Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 01/29/2007 9:37 pm I already have one of these for type (a higher grade but it had been lightly cleaned at one time...it's mostly white), but I couldn't pass up on buying this completely original beaut!

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 01/29/2007 10:42 pm Don't have a lot of experience grading these. I think it's VF20. I see a fair amount of wear on the reverse and also at the high points on the obverse. I am curious to know what you grade it. I'd like to get more proficient at these. Report this Post to the Staff
Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 01/29/2007 10:45 pm I'll give my grade estimate in a few days. Too many of these have been mishandled and cleaned which is why I said "yes" the moment the dealer showed it to me. Okie-colin...I appreciate the offer, however I'm probably going to hold onto it for a bit. Who knows, maybe we can do a trade one day for something you find on the bourse.

Prethen Pillar of the Community United States 3234 Posts	Posted 02/01/2007 3:11 pm This coin is a very nice Fine...very choice for the grade. What makes it so special is that soooo many of the available Trade dollars have been messed with and/or cleaned. This one struck me as amazing for the type and the not-so-lofty grade and the fact it really has no problems to speak of. Report this Post to the Staff
