BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 08/03/2018 1:36 pm Looks cleaned/polished in these images. I'd say XF+ details. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/03/2018 2:28 pm Looks like a scan, which is obscuring the surface details. EF-40 sharpness at best, beyond that I can't tell for sure about cleaning or polishing. Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 08/03/2018 3:12 pm Incised Indians are nasty to grade. I think Coin World had a guide in one of their monthly editions. Plus there is always the ANA Grading Guide. Report this Post to the Staff

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36800 Posts	Posted 08/03/2018 4:14 pm AU-50, possibly "details" cleaned but it may just be the photo lighting. Report this Post to the Staff
