The obverse is so much nicer than the reverse.

I'm guessing no grade because the reverse and obverse are just so different.

i would say the obverse looks like a F12, but the reverse is more of a G4 at most.But I dont know about a grade as a whole coin

Just weird to have a coin that's way more worn on one side than the other. F and G is a long way in grading. I wonder if someone kept it reverse down and rubbed it across a table for years or something like that?

would you not just get the grade in between? like a F-12 and a G-4 would not be a VG-8? because I was going to say a F-12 and comment such as worn reverse, or detracting reverse? Would this method be correct.


It would be interesting to see what a TPG would say such as ICCS.


It could also have been a cause in which the coin is a bowl shaped or a concave or convex shape. because the obverse and reverse are similar grades except for the middle of the reverse.

ICCS would body bag this coin...

VICK you are right it seems. I put it down reverse down and it wobbles when I tap around the rims.

Could have gotten stuck in a dryer belt for short time? But I agree, no grade and body bag...just kidding, I don't know, I'm still learning. But this is a very interesting coin beings both side are different to grade.
