Kopper Ken Pillar of the Community United States 3402 Posts	Posted 04/05/2018 3:02 pm I agree with this coin being AU...there is wear on the wreath and it looks like on the eagle's head and talons. KK Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/05/2018 3:25 pm Certainly AU-58 at worst, I think it has a good shot at 62. Edited by Coinfrog 04/05/2018 3:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36806 Posts	Posted 04/05/2018 3:55 pm Looks like the reverse weakness is due to poor strike. I don't see any wear on the eagle. Good shot at MS-63. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11896 Posts	Posted 04/05/2018 5:44 pm i also don't see wear. I would say ms62, but I wouldn't pay full freight because the reverse wreath isn't fully struck. there is weakness in the upper wreath at 10 and 2 o'clock. also the tailfeathers, although better struck than the last example, aren't separated at the ends. for your type set, I would pay extra for a hammered strike where you can see all the elements of the design sharply.
