Would the good members of the Forum kindly give me a grade on this Washington 1941-D. I would give it a strong AU-58 but I'm terrible at grading and I know you guys have been really helpful in the past.

Thanks for the grade but I'm sorry to say I hope your wrong! Was hoping for a higher AU but you were pretty well on the last one. Now as soon as the old guys wake up from their nap and the younger guys/gals get home from work maybe I'll get a few more gradings.

Thanks

Lol. I could be way off. That first one was mostly luck I believe. But no matter what..It's a gorgeous coin.

Nice coin! I'm no grade master but I'm guessing atleast AU55. Probably higher as the fields look very clean, no scratches

Thanks to you 2 I know I'm in the AU area with this coin. Would like to get a few more grades though. Wait till you see the next one I put up for grading.

Lets go guys/gals need a few more grade opinions on this coin.

Based on the photos, I don't see anything that I think would cause it to grade below choice AU. I see what may be a touch of rub which would prevent it from reaching MS.

I don't see any rub or wear whatsoever. The pictures may not be perfect but from what I see I would say MS63.

The coin looks MS to me. MS-60 to 62. Looks to have plenty of luster and I see no traces of wear on any high points. Just my 2 cents worth.

The lighting is very diffuse which will mellow out the appearance of the surfaces but I am struggling to find anything resembling wear. With that said, I am strongly leaning to a fully Mint State coin but it could be anywhere from AU58-MS65.

You guys are getting nicer and nicer. Thanks for the gradings. What I'm really happy about is no one mentioned anything about scratches from cleaning, polishing, etc. Neither one of the two coins I put up for grading recently have not had any remarks about cleaning, etc. I have one more coming up for grading and if it passes your inspection I may send them off to be graded by PCGS or NGC. Right now they look so good in my Dansco so I may not.

Thanks again

Looks like a MS65 to me with a weak strike.

Little hits on the L in Liberty and the 1 in the date. Clean fields on the obverse. Looks like light contact marks on the portrait.
The reverse is nice. Strong breast feathers, and the feathers on the legs are good.
If there are any hairlines I can't see them.
If it is an AU, I would call it 58. If the luster is intact I might call a 64 or so.
IMHO
What sort of setup are you shooting with?

I don't see the wear either. It looks like a solid 65 to me. Nice coin. If it's mint state it grades no lower than 64.

I don't know where people are getting AU from. I was thinking MS66 at first blush.
