No one wants to play?
I am stuck between XF and AU. If it is AU, is it 50 or 55?

I'm going to say EF-45. It might grade AU-50 on a really good day but I can't see it grading any higher than that. There is just a little bit too much wear on the cheekbone, hair, and eagle's breast.

Quote: Cleaned? Why would you think cleaned? There is a considerable amount of wear. The luster seems a bit artificial because it is too uniform. Usually the high points where the heaviest wear is will be more dull and have a slightly grey color.

OK, drumroll. ANACS graded it no problem AU50 Nobody thought it might go 55. Divided after that, we had three 50s, two 45s, one 40 Cleaned. I didn't think cleaned, but I suppose the doctors are always getting better. Thanks for playing. I have a chance to buy this one, you guys as always are a big help in the decision process. I am actively looking for a 36-d. Really, that is the last one needed to complete my Washington registry set. With NGC. Although NGC has a couple of Over and Under Mintmarks that they have slots for. I am not sure I am going to pursue them. They are pricey, and I find the requirement arbitrary and . . . . . . . what word am I looking for . . . . I just am not comfortable with the requirement. Ah, that is another conversation. I am in danger of hijacking my own thread. Thanks all for playing along!!

AU-50? Must have lots of luster b/c this thing looks XF-45 for me. lots of wear and not just in the high spots.
