Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 11/15/2014 3:23 pm Those of you who said "Details" were right about this coin. It came back today graded "AU - Whizzed". While I was waiting for the coins to come back from NGC I looked at all the photos I'd taken of it and noticed what looked like some weakness in the first feather of the headdress. I started then to think that the coin wasn't mint state and something may have been done with it. I was surprised it was whizzed since I thought that left fine marks on the coin. A disappointment, but not a costly one, fortunately. A lesson learned. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36844 Posts	Posted 11/15/2014 5:08 pm Sorry to hear, I was hoping I was wrong about the artificial surface. Hucksters are getting better at their trade these days. The coins whizzed back in the 70's and 80's were much easier to tell, brush marks could be seen around the lettering and close to the devices. This one looks pretty even through out the surfaces on both sides. Report this Post to the Staff

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 11/15/2014 8:47 pm I never saw this topic, but when I first saw the coin, it did not look right. Almost said counterfeit, but the Longacre doubling on the reverse and the realistic date kept me from doing so. Then I saw your update on the following page. Sorry for such a disappointment, but there are lessons to be learned. Report this Post to the Staff
