I'd say he's been cleaned... mostly noticeable on the reverse The white on the letters of America is not there... (I don't know what my camera does)The other thing I notice is the weakness on the lower beak and the lower edge of the left wing... is this from the die? Other that that these areas seem very sharp to me. thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Bilbo Pillar of the Community United States 812 Posts	Posted 11/09/2007 1:48 pm I agree that the lower beak and wing edge are due to strike, not wear. I'm seeing a bit more detail on this FE, compared to the 1857 you posted last week. I'm going with EF-40 on this one. Report this Post to the Staff

shatsi Pillar of the Community United States 1541 Posts	Posted 11/09/2007 3:30 pm My initial thought was EF but the reverse show more wear than the obverse so I'll go with VF Edited by shatsi 11/09/2007 3:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
