NathanASE Pillar of the Community United States 1511 Posts	Posted 01/11/2013 11:51 pm Awesome coin! I love the seated series. I just got the 1854 arrows and rays half.. I still need this and the rest for a date denomination set! I'd be completely happy with that one! You did good! I agree with a VF-30 grade! Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 03:19 am Yes! This piece has surfaces that look much more in line with what collectors look for in 19th century circulated silver. VF30 would be very fair with claims to 35. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9796 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 04:51 am Hopfully not a big scratch I see on the obverse at 2:30 with some smaller ones around 4:00 Otherwise VF25/30 range. Quote: This piece has surfaces that look much more in line with what collectors look for in 19th century circulated silver. - EXACTLY! Coins like this look great in a Dansco Album, I've see a couple sets, very near complete, Larry Briggs had a beautiful set, many years ago he was selling at an ANA show. I just wish I could have afforded it then, I defintely couldn't today! It was allmost all VF-XF examples with a few AU's nothing below VG. Was missing only 1871-CC, 1873-CC no arrows (off course), 1874-CC and the 1886, if I remember correctly. It was just under $20K and a deal at that. It also had an extra dime page with cool varieties in various lower grades. "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

dsfreeworld Pillar of the Community United States 4337 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 08:34 am thanks for the great comments!! Quote: High VF, but I think it was cleaned. certainly somewhere around 1904 on its 50th someone took a rag and water and wiped a little but its not a modern day cleaning with dips or brushing i also agree with the population of collectors who love choice VF circulated...in these Seated coinage types it adds such an amount of class to the look of the coin I bet Larry Briggs has some Seated quarters that would blow our minds away Report this Post to the Staff
