paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/23/2015 11:21 am XF45 details, scratch on the cheek and through the point of the bust would probably body bag it in this condition; your photos make the surface look weird -- very rough, and dull.

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 12/23/2015 11:30 am That "scratch" at the point of the bust is likely a die scratch. Just so you guys know, these are scans, which are known to wash out the appearance of a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/23/2015 11:36 am Yeah, I bet this one looks a lot better in hand. XF45 still seems about right for a grade. I think the hair is too weak to pull an AU. But I may be wrong :) Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.

jjwabraham Valued Member United States 288 Posts	Posted 12/24/2015 4:56 pm I would say XF-AU if I had it for sale and I see a high XF (or weak strike) as a buyer, citing flatness on hair above and behind eye, top 2 leaves, and back edge of cap on obverse, along with flatness on top two grain bundles on reverse. Don't get me wrong, nice coin that may be AU, but from a critical eye, there are places... Report this Post to the Staff
