Steelers72 Pillar of the Community United States 1448 Posts	Posted 03/26/2020 12:05 pm They'd prob nail it for cleaning and scratches. Had a similar seated half with identical scratches above the eagle and they bodybagged it scratches. Nice coin though. Id grade it XF40 if not details Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18670 Posts	Posted 03/26/2020 6:23 pm some weakness in strike on both sides. the dress, shield and boulder high points are sharp and well defined. technically I would put in the AU50 bucket but the overall eye appeal for me drops it a notch to XF45 and possibly cleaned and retoned Report this Post to the Staff
