bjcMD New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 03/18/2016 12:00 am Hi guys! Another one I'm thinking about for my 7070. I like the details, but am a little concerned about the porosity. I'd appreciate any thoughts with regards to a grade. Sorry for the LQ photos! Report this Post to the Staff

TypeCoin971793 Pillar of the Community United States 6370 Posts	Posted 03/18/2016 07:35 am I'd say that's a choice example for a type set. I am at VF-30 details, but the porosity is not that bad. Value is around $300 as per ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 03/18/2016 09:00 am VF-30 sharpness, but the porosity pulls it down to a net get of Fine. EAC would net this down to VG. It okay as an example of the type, but like many collectors I would prefer one in Fine with no problems, but those are tough to find these days. Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1852 Posts	Posted 03/18/2016 12:26 pm Easily VF35 details, but the surface roughness (graininess or porosity) wold take it down to about F12. Report this Post to the Staff
