numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11899 Posts	Posted 07/06/2018 7:43 pm Picked this up for $131. Obviously there is a reason for the low price. Thoughts on grade and problems? Thanks! Edited by numismatic student 07/06/2018 7:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/06/2018 7:53 pm A sharper, straight-on pic of the obverse would help - the brow hair is obscured here. Clearly the scratches are a problem but I can't get a good feel for the wear from these photos. Report this Post to the Staff
MikeF Pillar of the Community United States 3479 Posts	Posted 07/06/2018 8:58 pm Looks like that scratch on the head is large enough to trigger a details grade but I agree with the frog. It's just a guessing game coming up with a technical grade from the photos Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 07/06/2018 9:05 pm Thats a shame about that gouge :( I think UNC details is likely, but as the others stated, it could change depending on the angle Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11899 Posts	Posted 07/12/2018 7:16 pm This one came in and looks much nicer than I expected. First, the pictures in the seller's listing followed by the pictures in hand today. Thoughts? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/12/2018 7:29 pm I can't really tell if it's been cleaned, but there are enough obverse scratches (and that divot on the cheek) to put me off. Report this Post to the Staff
silverwolf Pillar of the Community Canada 3733 Posts	Posted 07/12/2018 7:36 pm Cleaned at some point for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
two_tonevf35 Pillar of the Community United States 719 Posts	Posted 07/12/2018 11:32 pm Oy, that dig on the cheekbone and scratches on the neck to jaw - hard to get past those despite the luster from the top 2nd set of pics. O mint coins can have sawdust divots on the neck, especially the halves. Report this Post to the Staff
