crazyglue Valued Member United States 467 Posts	Posted 10/08/2016 10:06 am Hi, I was determining whether to sell this and was debating value with myself. Interested in anyone's opinion on grade.It is in a flip. Report this Post to the Staff

drk1 Valued Member United States 51 Posts	Posted 10/08/2016 5:24 pm Wow. That is one gorgeous coin! I really shouldn't be venturing an opinion, but I can say that I've seen coins that weren't as nice called AU50. I wouldn't be surprised if yours graded out a little higher than that.

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 10/08/2016 9:04 pm I would have to see this coin in hand. I have a feeling it looks really good. Chance of being better than AU Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5673 Posts	Posted 10/08/2016 10:05 pm I also think AU-50. There's wear on the wings, and it looks flat, probably dipped. Report this Post to the Staff
crazyglue Valued Member United States 467 Posts	Posted 10/08/2016 10:13 pm Thank you everybody for your help. I took a few more pictures and uploaded them below to help determine (no flash, light from ceiling bulb, no natural light). I am no better a photographer than I am a coin grader. I normally tend to stick with either commemorative OGP, modern danscos busted out of proof and mint set, or circulated grade silver series. I do not deal with loose higher grade coins too often. In general, serious grading is not in the norm for my collection. I do have a higher (maybe) grade Washington quarter collection and posted the keys in another post.

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18680 Posts	Posted 10/09/2016 11:24 am i think AU50 is a conservative grade Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36782 Posts	Posted 10/09/2016 11:34 am Nice luster, I'd give it AU-53. Report this Post to the Staff
Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 10/09/2016 12:06 pm I am 50/50 if this coin has been dipped too much or if it is from light circulation....I'd wait for a better example. Report this Post to the Staff
crazyglue Valued Member United States 467 Posts	Posted 10/09/2016 7:30 pm Thanks everyone for your input, it is much appreciated. I find it beautiful to look at, but after reading this and looking at the coin in hand, I too believe it may have been dipped at some point. I still like it a lot. But since it is not in my collecting areas of interest, I will likely get rid of it at some point. Report this Post to the Staff
