Happy Easter CCF! Just wanted to give you some SLQ today to test your grading skills. Also, is this coin original skin? Thanks!   |

I do not believe that this coin is original. It does seem to be MS details, I would say 63. I suspect that since you are asking, there is a numerical grade assigned by a TPG , and it looks like PCGS which does not give numbers to details coins. So I assume that my assessment will not match the TPG "correct" answer. But that is my opinion... Edit: Maybe only "market acceptable" dipping... Edited by BigSilver

Thanks Big Silver. I appreciate your opinion. Just curious, what made you say it's details? I don't necessarily put only straight grade TPG posts up. Thanks! |

Market acceptable au55. Luster looks muted in center. Also looks lightly dipped, which did not wipe out all of the coin's luster. Oxidation in protected crevices only is unnatural and unattractive.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I agree with the market acceptable, but not original crowd. It kinda looks like it was lightly rubbed with a jewelers cloth.
