Buckwill311 Valued Member United States 363 Posts	Posted 08/25/2017 09:51 am I always have trouble grading these I'm going to go with MS65 I love the toning Report this Post to the Staff
BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4591 Posts	Posted 08/25/2017 09:53 am Interesting die crack on the reverse at K8. Those are not as common as clashes in this series. Lots of original detail under the toning, I'm going to say MS63 but that's a guess (my knowledge is of the circulated kind). I don't think it goes higher because it's just not the rare full strike that crisps up outlines of the obverse shield and the diamond and orbs in the C on the reverse. The stars are flat and while there is some of the 'finning' outline on the arms of the C, it's not sharp. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 08/25/2017 2:58 pm Funky strike, as usual. I can't spot any circulation, but it's tough to be sure when some areas are so weak (date). Nice original patination with no hint of cleaning. I'd be surprised if it was less than 63. Report this Post to the Staff

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."
