pristine2 Pillar of the Community United States 1048 Posts	Posted 07/11/2013 1:39 pm I've seen this kind of blanched grey surface on original coins before. But when photographed at a certain angle, you can see a certain reddish hue on the pretty lady: It's easy to make it disappear (if I were like most ebay sellers): The reverse is a bit nicer: Any chance this coin would avoid a details grade? How would you grade it? Report this Post to the Staff

D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 07/12/2013 12:35 am I like it as a G-6. It may have cleaned a long time ago but I think it has retoned enough to grade problem free. Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 07/12/2013 12:49 am G4 to me, the scratch on the reverse keeps it from G6 not that is a big difference anyways a good is a good in most cases as to value.
