It's from a reputable dealer will full return privileges. When a Coin World ad states XF and problem free, I'd except nothing less. For $800 an 1812 or 1814 can be purchased in XF. I'm sure it would one of these dates. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

Yes you can get one of those dates with XF sharpness for $800, but it will be dark and at least somewhat porous, and possibly showing some light oorrosion. Report this Post to the Staff

Would be more fun! Exactly what I like to do. Not a real big person on type sets or collections but way, way back I purchsed a plastic sheet for the 20th Century Type Set. Filled it with just about anything. Over the years I have slowly improved the grades of each coin. No big hurry though since I started it about 20 or more years ago. Report this Post to the Staff
