paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 3:15 pm I just received this hi-class lady in as an upgrade to my existing Braided Hair Large Cent. All thoughts as to grade and attribute would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to decide whether to send her in for grading, but then again, she's going to be in my 7070 so why bother? I yield the floor to our experts. Paleoguy Ooops! Almost forgot ---> Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36800 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 3:29 pm Wow, nice coin, I like it! It seems worthy of a slab, my only concern would be the discoloration on the reverse. Under a glass, do you see any corrosion? If it does have environmental issues, the best you will get is a "genuine" from PCGS or a details grade from NGC. Otherwise, I would go for it. Report this Post to the Staff

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 8:12 pm It appears to be at least a high AU and quite possibly MS. I am not sure about the patches on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15458 Posts	Posted 09/05/2012 9:01 pm I am indeed a novice on this series ... but I truly enjoy seeing this lovely coin PG. I see maybe a few issues ... the apparent verdigris on the reverse is concerning ... but a lovely coin indeed.
