Angil82 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 10:36 am Curious as to what you think the grade of this is? When appraising through PCGS what category would this fall into? Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 10:51 am That's a 2 1/2 Dollar Gold Liberty Head. Hard to see pics clearly, but looks high grade. Could be unc or high au, not sure if it was cleaned or not. Lucky you. Would it be possible to get a little better photo of the reverse? Looks like it might be the "old reverse" variety, and in that case, very lucky you. Edited by edweather 04/07/2019 11:05 am Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 1:00 pm At second glance, the date looks like 1361, but probably the lighting. Report this Post to the Staff
Angil82 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 1:23 pm Date is 1861. Probably lighting, but it's in the safe right now. Trying to dig it out shortly. Report this Post to the Staff
