duncanbishop24 Pillar of the Community United States 898 Posts	Posted 12/28/2014 4:59 pm I was just browsing on northeast coin's website and clicked on the following pictures. The grade that PCGS gave this coin seems too high in my opinion and figured I'd ask the community. Here's the obverse and reverse of the coin in question. I'll tell you what PCGS graded it after a few replies. Report this Post to the Staff

NJ Bob Pillar of the Community United States 655 Posts	Posted 12/28/2014 5:14 pm I think this is AU55 at best. The toning is pretty cool but the crud on the reverse is troubling. Also, it looks like there is wear on Monticello with the columns almost being undetectable. This could be the result of a weak strike or perhaps the lighting in the photo but it just doesn't look good. Report this Post to the Staff
duncanbishop24 Pillar of the Community United States 898 Posts	Posted 12/28/2014 5:43 pm That's what I was thinking. There is nearly nothing left of the columns in Monticello, as well as the crud on the back. The toning is neat. Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 01/01/2015 08:18 am something is not right with this coin. on the obv. Jefferson's hair is not well defined yet the letters and date are. what's with faint horizontal lines ? on the rev. most of Monticello is very weak yet nice steps for a 58-d. the D mint is sharp so are all bottom letters. top letters seem weak. also those faint horizontal lines. add a little crud to the rev. all I can say; is it came from the mint this way.

Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 01/01/2015 11:59 am Same thoughts and comments as above. Coins like these give me a little trouble: many aspects I like but enough in the way of possible issues that give me doubt. Good Luck! Report this Post to the Staff
