Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 04/03/2013 5:09 pm 1. I would appreciate opinions on the grade of this IHC I just found last night. 2. Would the slight "woodiness" affect value much? 3. If I decided to get it slobbed (only do this as a fail safe so so family can ID better items if anything happens to me), would I need to somehow point out to them the woodiness - or is it trivial anyway? Thanks CCF Family - look forward to your responses. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 04/03/2013 10:21 pm Will go VG8 70/75 dollar coin at that grade. Not worth the slab. Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 04/04/2013 12:04 am I will go with G-6. I don't think the woodgrain will affect the value or the grade. Just checked the Red Book on flying eagle and Indian cents and it says this date is often struck from an improperly mixed alloy. It is often found with woodgrain or golden in color.

hesgut Pillar of the Community 1028 Posts	Posted 04/06/2013 5:59 pm G-6. I don't like it especially, but it's somewhat nice. I also think it's worth about 70 and would not be worth getting it slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 04/06/2013 10:51 pm Your coin would be BN. The vast majority of original circulated copper are brown. There are a few exceptions where a coin has been graded AU-58 RB by a TPG. Report this Post to the Staff
