Not too shabby for about $20, huh? How'd you grade this one? Obverse is pretty lustrous, just some residue that I'd maybe want off its surfaces on both sides. Thanks again, as always.

BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 06/11/2018 11:54 am looks really nice, and a great price to boot. Just be careful- everything Chinese is suspect from the get-go. I do think this one is fine, but just be wary. Report this Post to the Staff
cableguy815 Valued Member United States 414 Posts	Posted 06/11/2018 2:50 pm Looks legit. The only thing that really sticks out me is the really flat detail on the ear. Almost looks like this area was filed away. Could be just the planchet. Assuming this is not a details coin (some visible hairlines) and there is luster as you say (very clear in your images that luster is abundant), this is probably a low MS coin. Definitely not too shabby for $20. Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 06/11/2018 7:32 pm I'm seeing inconsistent granulation in the tight spaces of the design elements. I hope they are good, but there is so much fake Chinese th at I'm always suspicious. Report this Post to the Staff
Matteproof Pillar of the Community Korea, Republic Of 1881 Posts	Posted 06/13/2018 10:00 am BigSilver- I am aware of Chinese counterfeits that only seem to increase and get better these days. This time I got lucky, but next time I should be more wary on my decision, especially when it's up for a surprisingly low price. Cableguy815- Thanks for verifying this one, too. It does look very lustrous, and it's free of an abundance of hairlines that would give it a details grade. Just some bag marks and scratches. I'll probably send this coin in for grading. I'll see how it comes out. moxking- Granulation! Thanks for pointing that out for me, had me checking it once more for any that I could've missed. It seems OK, but I guess I'll have to see until I submit it to a tpgs and get the grades back. Report this Post to the Staff
