Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 07/24/2005 11:22 am Hi Bobby Question ? does the coin have a lettered edge ? It should be a thick planchet lettered edge ! 1794 head VG-8 -VG-10 I think the coin has the detail to make F-12 but with the damage to the rim, and whatever that is in the center of the reverse? what is that ? The obverse surface of the coin looks even but dark, the Reverse looks like it may have some corrosion hard to tell from pics. This is a really cool coin Bobby !!!

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 07/24/2005 2:27 pm The coin is slabbed (ANACS) - no rim damage, just a stray part of the holder. The "E" is the diagnostic for the "crossed E" variety Sheldon S-46. I'm sure it has the lettered edge or it wouldn't have slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 07/24/2005 3:42 pm Anacs slab it as an VF 20 or 25? because I'm sure that I under graded it ,, at F-12 without the rim damage !! Rick Edited by Metalman 07/24/2005 3:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 07/27/2005 3:40 pm Sorry, Rick. I wanted to wait and see if anyone else wanted to take a crack at it. ANACS slabbed it as EF details, cleaned-corroded, net VF30. The cleaning is long past but there is still a sheen left to the coin. The corrosion refers to rough surfaces but no active corrosion that I could find. It's running now if you want to see the entire description: 1794 Draped Bust Auction Report this Post to the Staff
Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 07/28/2005 03:20 am Thanks Susan ! I knew I missed it low, but I have very little reference for grading this type of coin, so it was kind of a shot in the dark . Rick Report this Post to the Staff
