RES Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 5:42 pm EF45 was where I was at with this coin as well. I'm still a little iffey on the details portion though... I understand where it comes into play on a damaged or cleaned coin, but when applied to an original coin is it just to say that the coin is well struck? Report this Post to the Staff
Kman Pillar of the Community Canada 933 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 5:43 pm I'm saying it has been cleaned, and yes you are right about the other Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36770 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 5:54 pm EF-40 details (cleaned). Looks to be an average strike for this issue. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 6:10 pm The talons are so flat that I'm convinced most of the "wear" shown here is strike-related. AU, but looks to have been brushed on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
1893S Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 7:03 pm AU, but, roughed up pretty bad. Spot value only. Report this Post to the Staff
RES Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 7:40 pm It really is a nice coin. My pictures are killing it. Report this Post to the Staff
NathanASE Pillar of the Community United States 1511 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 7:45 pm By no means am I an expert but I'd have to say EF-45 details also. Possibly an AU-50, but IMHO definitely cleaned Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 8:47 pm For an 89-0 AU details. Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 10:31 pm I think the coin has AU details but may be cleaned since the luster looks a bit washed out. Report this Post to the Staff
