vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 03/01/2013 6:49 pm Hello, could I have an opinion on the grade of this dollar and if it has been cleaned, if it is ms, etc? Note, the holder is a generic one from sgs, I plan to break it out and submit to ANACS. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

This one looks pretty good, though, and I think it'll grade. It has the look of a "slider," could come back AU58 or MS63-ish. Hopefully the latter. Report this Post to the Staff
vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 03/01/2013 7:45 pm SsuperDdave, Thank you, I look forward to being a part of the community!I sure hope it goes ms 63 :P It has great luster, and no apparent cleaning scruff marks. The luster is blazing, and pretty much scratch free. Hope it turns out a good investment. Edited by vince22 03/01/2013 7:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff

vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 03/01/2013 8:43 pm SGS had it at ms67 What a great deal, right!?!! No, I just bought it as if it was raw. Although the SGS holder probably scared off other buyers and saved me some money! Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/02/2013 12:23 am Perhaps there is a tiny amount of wear on Libety's hair and on the side of the Eagle's head. Doesn't look like a weak strike to me in those areas. A couple of the rays are broken below the Eagle's right wing. AU58. Nice coin anyway! Report this Post to the Staff
vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 03/02/2013 01:07 am Here are a few more pics to help you guys in your decision, I agree that it is a very sketchy on the fence coin! Thank you all for your opinions and help! Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/02/2013 06:51 am Wear is not apparent with better pics. The broken rays remain, but there are not many surface nicks. With better pictures, MS62 or 63. Report this Post to the Staff

upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 03/02/2013 1:09 pm I'm going out on a limb and say MS64. Nice fields and not very baggy at all. Nice original toning starting along the rim gives it nice eye appeal. Report this Post to the Staff
vince22 Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 03/08/2013 6:49 pm Hey,I got it back from ANACS, and several of you were spot on, MS 63!! would have been 64 but the scratches and broken rays on the reverse knocked it down a few points. I'm pretty happy with the investment! Sorry, I had a pic, but it didn't want to resize and upload Report this Post to the Staff
