LibertyEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1193 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 7:03 pm I'm curious.. why do you say it's not MS? It has cartwheel luster.. is it AU then? Also, what is stopping it from being FB? Here are a few more pics that show the luster a little better.. Report this Post to the Staff

einstem Valued Member United States 314 Posts	Posted 02/19/2018 5:28 pm Collecting Rosies myself, and they can be tough. Agree it's not MS due to the "wear" on the flame of the torch and leaves on the reverse. The Obverse looks almost MS, but a bit hard to see from the photos. But if no real "luster" left on the coin, then probably a high AU state as suggested by moxking. Torch is close to FT, but just not enough separation in the bands for a FT designation. I personally like "blast white" Roosies, and not a fan of this type of toning, but that is definitely personal preference. Enjoy - rosies are a fun collection. Very few are expensive, and love the way a "blast white" CAPS album is coming together on them. Michael Report this Post to the Staff
