rum_n_cola Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 08/22/2012 7:30 pm The obverse and reverse are sharp, though has several rim dings. What would you grade this coin? I am new to the hobby and cannot even begin trying to give a coin a grade. I am thinking of sending it to PCGS for grading, think it will get a details and or graffiti grade? All help is welcome and opinions respected. Thanks in advance.. Edited by rum_n_cola 08/22/2012 7:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 08/22/2012 8:43 pm I don't see any red flags that would lead me to believe its not real. The rims/denticles, design elements, date, and mintmark all appear correct. The unfortunate thing is there is some rim damage on the reverse that would land it in a details holder. There doesn't look like there is much luster but with the level of remaining detail, I think it could get AU details. Definitely worth sending it in to be graded to confirm authenticity as this coin rare and valuable in any grade, with problems or not. Just about a year ago, Heritage sold a PCGS graded cleaned example with approximately AU details for $8625. Amazing coin! Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36782 Posts	Posted 08/23/2012 10:36 am Looks AU for lack of wear. Definitely need this one certified. Those hits on the rim look somewhat intentional in their placement to me. No damage on the other surfaces. Report this Post to the Staff
rum_n_cola Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 08/23/2012 5:38 pm Thank you all for your replies. I am not looking to sell, just for insurance purposes, what would this be valued at? Given that it gets AU details (damaged - due to rims)? Is there any trick to know how damage affects a coin value according to its book value? Report this Post to the Staff
