Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 06/29/2016 11:03 am Here's an elusive coin that I've had on my wish list. This example turned up and I went for it. How do you think it graded? Report this Post to the Staff

billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 06/29/2016 1:30 pm I'd grade it AU-50, but I imagine that NGC graded it AU-55 Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18714 Posts	Posted 06/29/2016 8:39 pm I have it at AU53 also she might go 55 but I think there is not enough remaining for it Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6396 Posts	Posted 07/01/2016 3:12 pm Not much of a grading challenge, really: it's clearly AU, with luster impairment visible in the fields. There is a lot of proof-like flash in the protected areas. I presume with an original mintage of just 4,240 the dies were in like-new condition for most of the production run. Many survivors likely show P-L surface quality resulting from being struck with pristine dies. Report this Post to the Staff
