Though the obverse is relatively clean, it does have what seem like rubs with no real marks... Please check the pictures and pass on your comments on potential grade it will make with NGC. Thanks for all your inputs! Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/16/2020 9:47 pm Thanks for the sharp focus pictures; they are needed in this case. The rough surfaces has made me consider if this coin may have had a quick dip in dilute acid. The roughness is all over the coin, not just the fields. in these pictures, parts of the 'P' and 'L' have almost disappeared, along with some details of the eagle's feathers. Haven't seen a Peace like this before. There is some evidence of radial metal flow in the fields near the rims, which normally indicate worn dies . Nevertheless, a lot of the luster appears to remain, which is a bit contradictory to the acid hypothesis. I would be happy to be proven wrong. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 10:10 am Surfaces look original to me. I think the weak lettering is strike related, and the appearance is due to some light natural toning on both sides. A dip might improve the coin's marketability, as it would get that "blast white" appearance, but I personally prefer original surfaces.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36770 Posts	Posted 05/17/2020 11:11 am I don't think the slab fees would be justified on this coin. There appears to be enough marks to hold it to MS-64. Maybe you'll get a 65 but not worth the gamble for such a common date IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
