Found this guy in my change the other day.
Took it home to look at it with my 10x.

Not to bad for 7 years in circulation.
Has black spots on it, I have not done anything with yet, I'll toss it in acetone and see what happens.

2 pictures for grade.
What do you think?

The close up of the steps is for you to look at the left and right "urn" (i don't know what it actually is.) midway on the steps. The left one is worn and the right one has some detail. Question is...is the left one actually wear, or weak strike.

Thanks

I see what you are talking about, the design inside the small pillers midway up the steps... Looks like it could be wear, or even possibly a little bit of grease.

Most of these found in mint state will grade 63-65. The pictures don't show the luster but I'm sure it's there so I'll say 63. Those water spots are from the Mint, they cannot be removed.
