I just received this one from the FUN auction and freed it from the PCGS slab. I'd appreciate your thoughts regarding grade.   Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win". Dream On by Aerosmith Edited by cipster

S-279 R.2 in my opinion. Nice VG-10 details but the corrosion hurts. EAC 6. I wish the obverse looked like the reverse. Nice coin none the less.  Edited by Celticsoul

Can ask why you would remove it from the slab? I thought it is always better to have a slab coin (unless you are trying to close to grade value on a "details" slab.

Many copper collectors prefer to keep and view their coins raw. There are many subtleties that the plastic masks. Another reason is that many copper collectors like to handle their coins. This may sound odd to someone who collects silver but it's something we like to do. I store all my copper in acid free paper envelopes.

I grade VG10, with the obverse a little higher as usual for Classic Heads.
Yes, there is some corrosion but it is light and isolated, mostly on obverse. Overall net VG8 seems correct.
A nice coin overall.

Thanks for all the replies. PCGS VG8 Details. I liked it so I bought it  Quote:

Slabs are NOT for everyone and this proves it! Nice coin.
