razorblaydejr Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted 06/27/2015 9:23 pm This is the only other raw coin that I purchased today at the show. I picked this one up in an old Capital Plastics holder. I'd like to get some opinions on grade. Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/28/2015 7:17 pm Yes, it might have passed hands for awhile, so maybe AU58 at worst, but it's really impossible to judge from the pictures. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15425 Posts	Posted 06/29/2015 8:13 pm This example did not suffer in general from the poor (weak) strike of many coins of that era ... I'm seeing plenty of circulation wear ... AU53/AU55 IMHO .... assuming sufficient luster which is not evident in the photos. For sure not MS ... based on the photos provided.

razorblaydejr Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted 06/29/2015 9:45 pm Thanks for the feedback. I would say that sometimes my photos get it spot on and every now and then they don't. This is one of those times. My photos make this coin look much worse than it looks in hand. This one definitely has wear, but in hand it still is gleaming with luster and looks really good. I've graded this one AU55 for my collection. Hope most of you approve ;) Report this Post to the Staff
