Sunshine293 New Member United States 21 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 02:41 am I would give this coin an F12 but if you'd really like to grade it yourself go ahead and take a look at the PCGS grading site: http://www.pcgs.com/photograde/#/Indian/Grades Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyCC Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 03:22 am Thanks for that reference, Sunshine293! based on that, I would say even more than an F 12 because of the distinction between the lower hair and the ribbon, and the "liberty" and feather detail vs. their F12 example.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18657 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 07:57 am with Dave H. my first thought was this coin was in a hole at one point. Report this Post to the Staff
jpbone Pillar of the Community United States 1959 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 11:15 am Either way, pretty severe environmental damage. F-15 details. env. damage/corrosion. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyCC Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 12:15 pm to put it into perspective, someone paid $16.79 for the same year in much worse condition. http://www.ebay.com/itm/23102735221....m1423.l2649 Report this Post to the Staff
52Raymo Pillar of the Community United States 8516 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 12:35 pm Yeah but that one hasn't been messed with. Yours has some major issues with corrosion and somebody rubbing the high points to show Liberty, ribbon and such. It has value and you never know how much someone might bid it up on ebay.
