You Against PCGS - 1917 Type I - Standing Liberty quarter: Give your best grading estimate. I will post the actual grade in a couple of days. *Hint: I do not feel the grade is accurate...

I could see that garnering an AU-53 FH.  Still a nice looking coin!

 AU53 FH sounds great on this coin maybe even AU55 FH!

The feathers on the eagle's breast and leading edge mid right wing are a little weak. Rest of the coin not too bad at all. Lady Liberty's right breast OK, she looks a little old, though! AU55.

I am going a little higher at AU55 FH. That is a very nice coin. Side bet they said it was cleaned? (I don't think it is but that is the first thing that comes to mind when disagreeing with a TPG)

Looks AU55. Bet PCGS graded it XF45. Saw one on ebay not to long ago like that.

I would also go with AU-53 FH. A BEAUTY!  Now let's see what PCGS gave it...

All I see is 3 small nicks on the obv with round leg. The rev looks like an AU55 with a mint state obv FH. Overall grade AU55+.

Nobody has said AU50FH and that was what I was thinking when I saw it, so I will go with that.

I was thinking AU probably only a 50/53 - FH.
PCGS probably called it an XF45.
Nice pick up imo if thats the case.

Since FlipOfACoin doesn't agree with the grade, I'm going to guess this is in a OGH and guess the grade to be AU-50 FH.
