BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 08/28/2018 8:31 pm That's a nice gift! Your coin looks darn near uncirculated but the black obverse "toning" really hurts the eye appeal. Experts can do a diluted partial dip and likely improve the appearance but don't try it yourself. This is a Large Dates, Large Letters variety that is worth several hundred USD in AU condition. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/28/2018 8:40 pm Sorry, not close to uncirculated. Pics are difficult to grade from, but I would think EF-40 tops. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/29/2018 12:00 pm Are you suggesting these two are comparable from a wear standpoint? Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36741 Posts	Posted 08/29/2018 12:40 pm Razor sharp hair detail and eagle feathers. AU for wear in my book. The dark obverse is an issue. Might be ED. AU-53 (possible details) with better photos. Report this Post to the Staff
