This is a circ'd coin. It's really just an excuse to show you this pretty coin, which I bought raw and is now in an NGC holder, but anyway... Guess the grade.
I will say AU-50 even though I can't see the detail in the pictures either so this is actually just a guess. The pictures are too dark and not big enough to actually see the detail to determine the grade that it may be
with the flatness of the forehead I think I can see in the pictures I think I am going to knock it down to the XF-45 level, if it were a Jules Reiver coin then it still may have graded AU-58 or so just because NGC overgraded most of his collection I have seen
I thought it was EF too. NGC thought otherwise (honestly, this is a very nice coin and I'm curiously unconcerned whether it's undergraded, since I don't intend parting with it soon) but just barely:
Although that's pretty strict grading, there's no shame in calling that a "choice" VF. The difference may simply be in the amount of wear on the headband.
Thanks for lightening up the pics. The wear on the headband probably dictates the VF-35 grade, thought the rest of the coin seems very, very nice and worthy of XF-40. Thanks for sharing.
