TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 08:55 am A tiny bit of wear on the bow between the two leaves on rev. A little rub on center of eagle under left wing. Very nice coin. AU-58 Report this Post to the Staff
smat45 Pillar of the Community United States 2333 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 09:07 am I don't know if it's just the 1/2 cup of coffee or these old eyes are playing tricks on me? The obverse fields looks like there my be some very light clashing? I'm drawn to this http://www.maddieclashes.com/wp-con...45334549.jpg IDK? Nice pick up! smat Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18657 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 09:32 am I'm seeing a very lightly circulated FE. nice AU58. I would much prefer to have a nice AU58 like this rather than a marked up MS63 any day Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 11:45 am I'm at AU-58 as well, nice example. Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 12:01 pm Throw me into the AU58 camp. Wouldn't be surprised by a +/- grade swing either way. Report this Post to the Staff
fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3636 Posts	Posted 08/15/2021 5:51 pm WOW! That's a beautiful example. I agree with AU-58. It has strong eye appeal for the grade. Nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff
GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 08/16/2021 03:04 am Thank you, everybody, for your feedback. The relatively high grade makes it more difficult for me to accurately grade Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 08/17/2021 11:48 pm Just a bit of wear, most visible on the bow knot and on leaf high points. Strike is very sharp, particularly on the obverse. Photos don't show much luster but I expect it's stronger in-hand. No cleaning or other abuse. Looks solid for AU-58, a very nice example!
