Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 12:27 am Looks like AU-55 detail, with very unnatural surfaces. Harshly cleaned, whizzed, dipped, plated, maybe all of the above? Might even be a fake but if so the details look pretty accurate. Don't know what happened to AME in AMERICA and the small round dent by Liberty's neck is one more small problem. I'd sell this one for whatever I could get and look for an original replacement.

91o_collector Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 11:26 am I was afraid the consensus might be the case, just hoping the variety ( DDO) makes it worth keeping around. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 12:20 pm I'm not prepared to draw conclusions about the surfaces from these images. Details are AU, and if this is WB-102 (sure looks like a DDO) the grade is irrelevant. It's so rare we actually need to find more of them to create a viable market. Report this Post to the Staff
91o_collector Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 8:04 pm Fairly sure it is WB-102, noting that the weak AMER is mentioned in the description I read about 1858 varieties. Maybe one of the seated half experts will chime in? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff
