hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7273 Posts	Posted 09/07/2021 4:15 pm It looks MS, but its not graded. This isn't a 12 stars. Greysheet for an MS62 1828 13 stars is $275. It might make it to MS63 which is 400, but that carbon spot may keep it at MS62. Since its not slabbed you are taking a chance. Personally I like but I would only pay $220 for it.

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 09/07/2021 7:56 pm Guess it comes down to what grade you'd award this one. To me it's overpriced for a raw example, I have it at AU58-MS62, so that's over retail. Report this Post to the Staff

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 09/07/2021 9:16 pm For that price, no slab = no interest. Report this Post to the Staff
Oldfordman Pillar of the Community United States 2869 Posts	Posted 09/07/2021 9:19 pm Looks AU58 to me. And I define bu as a coin that is " bright uncirculated" which to me means full RD Luster. Report this Post to the Staff
