 Aw man that is exactly what I am looking for to add to my 7070. In fact it may be a little bit too much for me. Its every bit of XF and I wouldn't be surprised if this was an AU cent looking at it in person. After some more peeps weigh in I would like to know your grade assessment and the grade assessment of the person you purchased it from. Nice!! |

Dang that's the one I am looking for too! I'd say it'd make AU.

This looks to me as a S-258, R1. Nice details on this coin...just be sure it hasn't been retooled. Not that it is, but I can't tell either way from the photo.

From the pictures, the obverse looks XF, the reverse seems more like VF. In hand, this coin could grade higher.

She's nice looking. Grade-wise easy XF+, nice obverse strike, would always check for signs of re-engraving details and re-coloring.

I'm with Hunter and would net the coin XF.

That coin looks almost too good to be true. By the pix I'd say AU58. Although, I tend to agree that perhaps the coin has been retooled in which case the net grade would be significantly less.

Not a relevant question, and inappropriate. The rules we live by do not allow sales activity on the part of new members. I would normally just make this post go away, but I wanted to take the opportunity to remind everyone that numismatics is a very touchy business from a fraud standpoint. Our rules about selling (and offering to sell/buy) are there for very good reasons. I know that this was a passing comment, and I mean absolutely no ill will towards svtPONY95 or atlashealth, but we can't tolerate sales-related activity except under specific conditions. |

That coin's detail appears to be almost all there. If it hasn't been retooled (again the details look almost too sharp), it doesn't really show any wearing away of the metal, so it should garner a strong AU grade by what the picture seems to represent.
