paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 10:26 pm VF30, but those two obverse scratches are pretty deep...looks like old 2x2 staple scratch?

Slamnbass Pillar of the Community United States 3644 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 8:09 pm Great coin nice pickup! Panzaldi is that the reason for the difference in die wear I see in the stars too between left and right side? Been reading on classic grading lately and trying to learn certain pickup points just curious thanks! (Stars are much sharper on left side) Edited by Slamnbass 02/13/2016 8:10 pm Report this Post to the Staff
johnny676767 Pillar of the Community United States 521 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 11:14 am Slambass- You can really notice the uneven strike ot the reverse. There are no denticles on the upper portion and the lettering from the 'D' in 'UNITED' to the second 'S' in 'STATES' is very 'weak. This area on the reverse corresponds with the area of the date on the obverse- as noted by Panzaldi. Report this Post to the Staff
