Lots and lots of little marks and hits. Maybe cleaned, but I wish to hear other opinions. I don't think number one would grade. That scratch could hardly be in a worse place.

I wouldn't call it AU due to the flatness of the wing tips & Washington's wig blends into his face behind the eyes. Still a great coin.

Good point. Apparently I could use some schooling on picking up AU vs MS. I usually look at breast feathers, ear curl and legs. Report this Post to the Staff
