Any chance of this grading problem free?   Thanks in advance for any and all replies. |

full liberty on shield puts it at vf20 for me. not only is it problem free but an evenly worn beauty with great patina. the 1845 had a tiny mintage of 24,500 coins and unlike Morgan dollars, they circulated. this is a very scarce coin worth in the $500-700 range in this condition. thanks for sharing!  |

I like this coin. It has much of its original patina and a VF+ value. I agree the technical grade would be 20.

Is that a die crack or scratch on the reverse at the top and what is below the left wing in the field? VF20-25 and possible details.

I worry about that scratch through the shield. Ignoring that VF-20, however that scratch may detail it.

VF-25 straight, very nice example.

I think it stands a good shot at straight grade VF. We've certainly seen less pleasing examples straight grade.

Assuming that's a die crack at 12 O'clock on the reverse, I think it will straight grade VF-20.

split grade obverse VF20+, reverse F15. I think the overall look gives this coin a VF20 grade

I think this is an easy VF-25, maybe even a notch higher. Surfaces certainly look market-acceptable if not quite 100% original. The shield scratch and the shallow rim bruise at 11:00 on the reverse should not be enough to generate a details grade. Nice Seated dollar, generally pleasing. |
