Silverlover9 New Member Canada 9 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 3:25 pm I would say au 55 as think there is more wear on the head to be called au 58 Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11896 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 3:57 pm It is an attractive looking coin. Agree with au55. Report this Post to the Staff
jstav Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 4:30 pm I think it may have an old light cleaning or maybe dip. Report this Post to the Staff
Jon Brand Pillar of the Community United States 1023 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 6:46 pm Looks cleaned and scratched up. I would stay away as I dont like the eye appeal. Grade wise maybe 53-55. Report this Post to the Staff
jstav Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 7:56 pm thanks all. It is for my 7070, and perhaps a hole filler. seems like a good deal for $250? Report this Post to the Staff
moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 07/01/2019 8:30 pm No. It is not a great deal. AU, details, cleaned. Bright color on the reverse from insufficient rinse after dipping. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/02/2019 08:37 am Agree this has probably been doctored. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18673 Posts	Posted 07/02/2019 11:04 am AU53 details. the reverse is a dead giveaway for a cleaning. in a lot of instances light cleaning on these sometimes passes with a straight grade but I don't think this is one of those Report this Post to the Staff
jstav Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/02/2019 3:33 pm thanks everyone, it looked better in hand, so I did end up buying it, and will possibly post better pics. I feel like I could immediately sell this for quite a bit more than I bought it for, so is a good deal for me! Report this Post to the Staff
jstav Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/02/2019 3:50 pm I don't mind if it is cleaned, it is going into my 7070, not slabbed. My kids can decide what to do with it, if I give them my coins when I'm dead :) Report this Post to the Staff
jstav Valued Member United States 179 Posts	Posted 07/02/2019 6:53 pm I forgot to mention that the lady gave me a bonus 1836 capped bust dime, fine, of course with a small hole. still sweetened the deal. got them soaking in acetone. Report this Post to the Staff
