Hoping I found a RPM with beginners luck, but probably not. Edited by A-Penny-Sold 05/18/2021 01:28 am Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19130 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 07:31 am As far as a grade, I'm thinking AU58 as well. I like the subtle toning beginning to appear. Report this Post to the Staff

A-Penny-Sold New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 09:29 am Sorry about the images, I cropped them as close as I could on my phone. The problem is when I make it shorter it cuts off the top of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 09:50 am Really tough call without having it in hand, but I lean toward AU-58. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
A-Penny-Sold New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 05/18/2021 11:10 am Thanks guys, and sorry again about the photo quality, next time I'll just use my pc but I'm only home 4-5 days a month so it's difficult. Judging by everyone's responses I think I did okay? LCS marked it as UNC, but I prefer this to a low MS franklin anyway, paid 25 after taxes. Report this Post to the Staff
