Numis-Northerner Pillar of the Community Canada 857 Posts	Posted 05/14/2021 5:42 pm Looks pretty good for what it is, the obverse is quite strong for only being on a G details coin. Personally I would have gone for a cleaned one as apposed to a corroded one, but then again, it's not like there is enough to be picky I suppose. Very cool nonetheless.

thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 05/14/2021 9:50 pm There are nice coins and then there are cool coins. This is a cool coin. The corrosion makes it unattractive to people that spend a lot to get a nice coin. I have a lot of coins like this. They're not for investors, just collectors.

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 05/14/2021 9:59 pm Very nice pickup! The corrosion wouldn't bother me. It's a solid example and plenty of detail left as well. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
Matthew23 Valued Member United States 421 Posts	Posted 05/14/2021 10:08 pm Thanks guys I'm putting a set together from 1794-1857. The 1793,1799, and 1804 are a little to expense for me. So I'm putting a custom set together. Report this Post to the Staff
PNWType Pillar of the Community United States 561 Posts	Posted 05/14/2021 11:50 pm This is a great looking example, and despite the corrosion I think it looks great to the eye and sounds like a pretty reasonable price. Nice pickup! Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/15/2021 04:34 am What would it cost to have PCGS conserve it? Would that help any? I like it as-is, but just wondering. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 05/15/2021 7:09 pm The corrosion is evenly granular. Eye appeal is still very nice. A very nice example appropriately graded. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

cipster Pillar of the Community United States 2362 Posts	Posted 05/15/2021 7:54 pm Congratulations - I like it. I've bought several of these but you need to break it out of the slab to hug it.
