New to coin collecting and this was my second buy in pre- 1933 gold coins.. I thought the coin may grade higher then what it was sold as and didn't know if I should have it slabbed or not.
I would be happy at AU-55. On the reverse, this is the focal point: The upper portion of the wing is first to show wear, and there is a bit of wear here. Nonetheless, a very pleasing example.
Will someone else please point out the first area on the obverse to show wear? I still need to learn this. The cheek bone? Or something else.
Thanks everyone.. it's hard to get good pictures of all the areas like you pointed out of the wing tip.. the feathers are there but hard to see as I looked at the 1913 MS65 on PCGS and they all seem to be alittle light in that area to me.
