Thanks all, I appreciate your expertise.
This was listed on
ebay as "AU/BU Slider".
It's always a challenge to grade most anything from a picture, especially when it's close to or actually UNC, but luckily when I got the coin I was satisfied. It has plenty of cartwheel luster and I'm leaning more toward AU-58 but that might be a little prejudiced. Anyway I paid for a 53. ;)]
I don't see any wear on the reverse and the luster seems unbroken across the eagles feathers, but possibly a bit on the obverse in the usual place. With the way some of these were struck it's hard for me to tell.
Thanks for the confirmation.
Brian.
EDIT: This is another coin I am considering, NGC graded as an AU-53. Mine def looks better than
this one.
Do you agree with NGC?
