Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 11/09/2019 4:03 pm I would go about MS60 but the corrosion mark on the denomination and the carbon spot on the obverse would probably be a deal breaker for me. Report this Post to the Staff

tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 8056 Posts	Posted 11/10/2019 7:53 pm I am struggling to see ways in which this coin is several grades below this one that earned an MS64 from PCGS based on condition/wear. But I don't know how the TPGs take things like carbon spots into account. WIthout that, I would give it a grade in the low MS range rather than AU https://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotv...c601bca7ced0 Normally a carbon spot on the portrait would detract for me, too, but I just happen to have an age spot pretty much at that exact location, so I just might ignore it in this case.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 37193 Posts	Posted 11/11/2019 12:07 pm Thanks tdziemia, hard for us to avoid those age spots. I bought this one for 1/4 of what I've seen slabbed MS coins going for so that spot was discounted for handsomely. It came from a dealer in Europe. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 37193 Posts	Posted 11/11/2019 12:09 pm Here's a question. The spot can be removed but it will alter the surface. Which do you folks believe is worse, the spot or altered surface? Report this Post to the Staff
