InfiniteInterest Pillar of the Community United States 673 Posts	Posted 02/10/2008 7:39 pm I see some detail in the feathers and the horn looks full to me. I would go VF-30, although strike weakness could be mistaken for wear and this could be an XF coin... How's that for a definitive grade ?The toning looks a little strange to me , could be considered environmental damage. Report this Post to the Staff
JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 02/10/2008 7:48 pm I think the "toning" is just dirt. It is much more pronounced in these pics than in hand. I think the Liberty is the result of a weak strike. Report this Post to the Staff
trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 02/10/2008 9:49 pm Without taking in to account the "dirt" or "toning" I'd give this one at least a VF, looks like a full horn to me. Could be an XF, would need better pictures or to see it in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
CuprousCoin Valued Member United States 226 Posts	Posted 02/11/2008 4:41 pm appears to be a strong VF that was weakly struck. Notice how the center devices of the coin ( both obv & rev ) are fairly bold ( hair knot and buffalo shoulder ). liberty is almost gone and wear would not show there until it was fine through good Report this Post to the Staff

JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 02/11/2008 10:42 pm There we go habib. I paid VF money for this but felt it had a chance at XF. Either way I agree with the majority that this is at least a VF and possibly an XF. If Liberty and the loop of the buffaloes tail were sharper I think this would be a lock at XF. Thanks again for the opinions. Report this Post to the Staff
