IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 37206 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 10:23 am Yep, bad scans which are even worse than bad photos. Looks AU-55ish Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6447 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 10:28 am Solid AU-55 and I'd bet there is decent luster which is not shown in these images. The color could be due to retoning after a dip but many original coins have patina similar to what shows here. I'd lean towards original, problem-free surfaces. Did bad images mean you got a good price? It's a sweet little coin! Report this Post to the Staff
