coinsearcher83 Pillar of the Community United States 1358 Posts	Posted 03/11/2014 10:24 pm I think AU for both. The first appears to have wear at the bottom of Liberty's neck and the tip of the cap. The second appears to have wear at the tip of the cap and on the breast feathers of the eagles. Or bag marks.. they could be bag marks? I can't tell the difference between this and circulation yet.

Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 03/11/2014 10:35 pm I think both would likely pass muster as uncirculated, although the fine distiction of AU or not is hard to really see without the coin actually in hand under the right kind of lighting - the "O" looks like it ought to come in at MS-62, while the "S" might make MS-63.

zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 03/11/2014 11:18 pm I'd say lo MS or High AU for both but if I had to take a definitely guess I'd say AU-58 for the O and MS-62 for the S. Report this Post to the Staff

paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/12/2014 6:48 pm Both AU's. Too many non-bag mark scratches on the devices to rate an MS. Report this Post to the Staff
