I am planning to sell this soon and I would like
to know its grade. If necessary, I can have it
third-party graded.
Your opinions please.
(It does look very pleasing.)
Thank you.

john1, I do not feel comfortable mentioning where I will sell it.
At least, not in this topic.
I'll let everyone know when the time comes.

I'd say VF-30 because of the sharp reverse.
But VF-20 I can live with!
The ones on ebay look a lot less attractive in this grade range.

I would definitely get it into a TPG holder to maximize value. Too many fakes on the market keeping people away from bidding on raw coins.

My thought too. Not saying it's counterfeit, just saying it looks suspect.

Don't mean to pile on, but the surfaces do look unusual. Maybe smoothed or cleaned and recolored? All the more reason for TPG certification.

A TPG seems like a good idea.
