artdio Pillar of the Community 1844 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 8:37 pm Hey all, I'm going out on a limb here with this beauty.. In hand I would have to call it MS 65 Red Brown...There's approx 80% Red maybe more not really sure how to be exact.. I have other pics in different light , just hard to capture all the luster and stuff Anyhow worst case I'm hoping would be 64 R&B ..Want to be as close as I can ...I have it listed and I might correct it if I'm to far off....

wireman09 Pillar of the Community Canada 972 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 9:15 pm Looks like it may have been lacquered in the past with the shiny surfaces. It was a common thing to do 60+ years ago to keep red coins from toning. Nice looking coin. Report this Post to the Staff

qbvbsite Pillar of the Community Canada 849 Posts	Posted 08/06/2014 9:57 pm Well I don't think ICCS would ever give a MS65 RB... and MS64 RB's are rare. So With that said I think MS65 is out of the question. Nice looking coin tho. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9871 Posts	Posted 08/07/2014 01:32 am Nice strike! What's going on there above George's shoulder? Looks like the kiss of death price-wise. MS63RB, cleaned. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 08/07/2014 01:33 am Report this Post to the Staff
