AU Details. The cloudy appearance may be residual from a dipping that was not rinsed properly

This one was a hard one to get photos of. In hand, there is a very strong mirror-like surface when the coin is rotated and there's not any wear on this one I can see in hand. Definitely a tricky one to grade.

The hits on the reverse take it down and it does look hazy indicating, as panzaldi already sated, a dip of some sort. AU details

Regardless of reflectivity and/or possible wear, there are at least a dozen dings on this coin that would keep it at MS61 or lower IMO.

AU details. This. Your images are quite accurate, to the extent that they also illustrate how minor differences in lighting and technique can radically alter the appearance of a given coin. The technical detail presented here could be argued as a coin which has not circulated, but your first reverse image tells the tale. The huge scrape in the right field, at the top of the wreath leaves, is - first - an instant Details grade from a TPG. Furthermore, it's not something which could have happened at the Mint; therefore the coin has seen circulation. |
