Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 09:18 am I do not own this coin. These are the seller's photos. I was looking at it but wasn't sure how it would grade. Your opinions are welcome. Thanks. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 09:49 am Can't accurately judge surfaces with these blurry pics. Maybe AU-53/55. I wouldn't pick this one up unless the price was great and it had a solid return policy, personally. Report this Post to the Staff
Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 10:51 am The coin looks original, but a bit dirty. The seller doesn't offer returns so I'm hesitant to bid on it. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 12:06 pm I wouldn't buy based on that obverse pic - pretty much useless. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3657 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 12:17 pm I'd be a bit concerned about the milk spots on the reverse. It's definitely in the AU-mid UNC spectrum, but that isn't much help. Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 8:17 pm I would reach out to the seller and request better pics, using the reasoning of no returns and wanted an accurate idea of what your paying for. If they are unwilling, then I would steer clear personally. Report this Post to the Staff
numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11896 Posts	Posted 11/27/2020 10:58 pm I would say AU55-58 and set the AU55 price as my ceiling. Report this Post to the Staff
kbbpll Pillar of the Community United States 4233 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 01:45 am AU50-53 for me, seems to be a lot of wear in the leaves above the ear, but I wouldn't buy it based on these images. Looks like a gouge across the back of the head and scratches on the face. Report this Post to the Staff
Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 1:02 pm Thanks for all the responses. I think I'll pass on this Barber. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
