Hi all, whats the grade of this 1887 Seated Liberty.
Looking a lot more scratched than when I first saw her. Possible cleaning scratches?
I felt sorry for her in the store...
Poss grade? Details?
thanks...

Thanks.. I do too.. It was hidden in a pile of also very grade Barber dimes of 1902-1911 ages ($2 each). Nice purchse but I am unsure if they have any particular collector value as low grades...

By the way, Anything of interest at about 1 oclock on the first photo.. Die crack?
I can try to get better photos of that area..

Yeah, FR2. Small dings and scratches commensurate with grade.

I'm in at FR02/AG03 ... definitely nowhere close to a PO01.

Scratches, rim hits and associated bruises are consistent with the extreme circulated state.

There exists a PCGS PO01 certified lowball ... next lowest certified (PCGS) coin is G06 ...

There are folks who enjoy these lowballs ... IMHO not worthy of certification unless you knew for sure PO01 and planned to sell.
