oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 09/10/2012 07:54 am I am moving into the commemorative portion of my 7070 and saw this one over the weekend. There is something about the obverse that demands attention! What does the CCF think about what PCGS says about this commemorative? Thanking you in advance!

commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12271 Posts	Posted 09/10/2012 5:59 pm My eyes see what appears to be some rub/metal loss on the obverse high points (the areas at the knees and just below them, across the chest), so I would grade as Choice AU. It could just be the image, however, so it wouldn't surprise me to see a grade of MS-64 - the coin does appear to have good luster. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15425 Posts	Posted 09/10/2012 9:51 pm My opinion FWIW ... PCGS MS64 ... This coin is often found with amazing brilliant surfaces that truly glow ... and not uncommon at all in higher grades with those glowing surfaces ... If you own this one ... good for you and enjoy. If not ... know that this is an example that can be found IMHO with some patience with tremendous visual appeal. Lovely coin either way.

oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 09/11/2012 07:51 am You are right nickelsearcher, there are numerous excellent examples for this coin, even better than this one (IMO) in the same grade. This could be easier/harder than I thought in choosing the "right" one; Report this Post to the Staff
