Here's a 1872 Boliviano for your thoughts. What do you think the grade would be? It's a little hard to tell in the photos, but it has solid luster. Also, the marks, right? Shouldn't affect the grade? Let me know what you think   |

Lovely coin!
To best of my knowledge, the adjustment marks around 7-8:00 in first photo do not affect grade, nor would die cracks.

Oh. Sorry! The grade! I was waiting for a while for more people to write in and nobody did.
It is in an ICG slab at MS 61, which I think is way, way too low.

At least MS-62 and possibly 63. Great looking coin and unmolested.

Hi all, I finally got around to cracking and resubmitting this coin. Cracked the ICG and submitted to NGC. We all were right. See below. Much more fitting. N.   |

Thanks again for the opinions, everybody. Glad the crack worked out.
I'm happy with this coin, too, because of the huge adjustment marks. MS64 crown sized coin AND a great example of the issues of the minting process. Happy with it.

100+ year old dollar sized silver in MS+ condition is always good to have in any collection. |
