goterps04 Valued Member United States 61 Posts	Posted 05/03/2020 08:03 am I have two of these. One with a gold-ish tone to it I think? Are these any better than AU? * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

mtuma3 Pillar of the Community United States 744 Posts	Posted 05/03/2020 10:10 am I'm not that great in grading from pics, but The toned one is beautiful to look at, but shows a lot of wear in STATES (or weak die)... The silver one looks like it could be BU but a little shy of MS Mark ANA Member My7070 Report this Post to the Staff

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 05/03/2020 12:29 pm Strike is stronger on the second one. I'll take the eye appeal of the first any day. I'm going with MS63 on the first one, number of tick marks mostly on obverse. Second I would say is close but hard to tell through the darker toning. I too would like to see these in person, feel in hand they'd be a little more clear cut. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36684 Posts	Posted 05/04/2020 1:26 pm I think both will make MS-63. Nice coins. Report this Post to the Staff
