Haven't been as active as in the past, some health problems but I try and get in here once a week. Happy New year to everyone! I have an opinion but want to toss it to the membership Thanks for any grading help! RK

I'll say VF-35 or perhaps EF-40 sharpness, but concerned this may have been cleaned and re-toned.

 does have the appearance of an old cleaning. If it straight grades I'm at VF35

I'd say VF-35, straight grade despite an old cleaning.

Could have been cleaned and retoned but still a nice example. May make XF40

Iridescent toning will hurt this at a TPG, I'm afraid.

i think old cleaning on this one. better than 50% chance it would come back as details. might squeak out XF40

You guys are saying what I was thinking.
My opinion was high VF range with a very slight shot at XF-40. I think there was an old cleaning. The coin looks brownish straight on but tilted in the light you can see what the pictures I posted show.
I am leaving it as is and off to NGC when I have a few more coins to submit.
Many thanks for the opinions, you guys rock!

Very nice specimen,second I saw it thought VF35 old old cleaning retoned. I Dont see many above Fine, nice to see a 14 D in midgrade easy on the eyes.

Same as the others, that color says old cleaning to me. Level of detail says VF35, but I'll bet a TPG gives details
