Hello Everyone,

Any thoughts as to possible grade or FBL designation would be appreciated. (Picture might not be high enough quality to determine FBL, if not, I apologize)

Thanks,

GVH221

Looks like a circulated coin with some environmental damage. FBL means nothing at this point. I think this coin will grade EF-45 details. Looks like lots of crust in the IN GOD WE TRUST area.

I was thinking there was some kind of damage involved, tone just didn't look right; thank you for the feedback.

Looks like a mule from here. 1835 Bust one side and Franklin reverse the other.

No. the OP had the picture of the 1835 Bust on this thread as well. Look at the edit time on the original post.
