Hardfinds80 Valued Member 66 Posts	Posted 07/15/2017 06:14 am It looks like a very nice struck coin but they do grade them based on all kinds of aspects like damage flaws or breaks in the coins shinny sheen which comes from oil and sweat from peoples hands you name it . But hey you never know what someone else may think ... Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/15/2017 09:26 am Yeah , the first thing that caught my eye was the MM . Might be an RPM ? There's too much light and glare on your pics ,hard to tell how much mint luster it really has . From what I can see it's a nice AU-58 + . Report this Post to the Staff

I like the nice little die chip on the Rev. though. Still a good looking American coin though! Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/15/2017 6:11 pm Its a solid strike because its a very new obverse die. Notice how the L in LIBERTY and the motto are away from the rim, the details are all the same original sizes and sharp edged tops. This die most likely has never been polished, original face. As it wears, those letters will curl up the rim and flatten out. Nice example oh how they're supposed to look! Report this Post to the Staff
