nlp coins Pillar of the Community United States 2373 Posts	Posted 11/25/2008 12:36 pm Believe it or not this coin came from ebay. I would like some constructive opinions on its grade. On the obverse there is light lavander toning around the perifery, more dominant in the 3-9 o'clock position. Nic on the cheek and what appears to be a brush or slide mark that has not scratched through the lustre. The reverse doesn't have the lavender toning but does have several small black spots. I added a second reverse pic, the first has a white spot below shield(fuzz). Edited by nlp coins 11/25/2008 12:43 pm Report this Post to the Staff

wwhitman Pillar of the Community United States 1415 Posts	Posted 11/25/2008 12:58 pm not much to complaint about on that one Real nice pick-up from e-bay. Who was the seller? They appear to be one of the good persons. Report this Post to the Staff
nlp coins Pillar of the Community United States 2373 Posts	Posted 11/25/2008 1:39 pm sterlingrarecoin was the seller. I'm happy as a pig in DUDU with the coin but not very good at grading any types over an AU. Hope it gets easier in time. nlp Report this Post to the Staff

CuprousCoin Valued Member United States 226 Posts	Posted 11/25/2008 2:19 pm I would have to agree with mycrob, MS63BN. slight weakness in the lower hair curl would most likely prevent it from being MS64. This is a very nice "problem free" example with original toning. Report this Post to the Staff
