I guess I was more asking about the supposed damage, repair (and worth based on that) and authenticity of the coin. Thank you for the info though! And welcome to the forum since it seems it hasn't been too long since joining! :)

It looks authentic to me and assuming it is with AU details it's a $500 coin or thereabouts.

Yeah my dealer mentioned a name of someone who repairs coins and that the "color" looked like his "work".. I will have to ask and see who that person was again because it seems like this is a well-known "repairer"(?) and his repairing work still looks really nice for the asking price.. I can live with details as long as they aren't distracting and details are still good. Am seriously considering it and finishing my first page in my 7070 seeing as people are ok with the look of it authenticity-wise.

EF-45 details, looks like some graffiti was removed and the coin cleaned. No signs that it was holed then plugged but it is not a very desirable coin in this state. I would avoid this one if I were you.

Well the price was really good considering the feedback I had gotten. I went ahead and bought it since my misfit 7070 has cleaned/details/damaged coins in it already. I was able to get this coin for $120. At that price though I would think there would be a bit of damage. I will take closer pics tonight. Thanks for the feedback all!

Doesn't work for me, but if it works for you, that's all that matters.  |

The price was too good for me to pass up and he had a sticker price of $150 but I buy a lot of stuff there so he had it down for $120. And with some other coins I bought with it I can sell for profit to bring the price down to approx. $100 for it.

Sounds like you are pleased with it so that's all that matters.

I would have bought it for a buck twenty  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."
