Saw another go for under $6 that night. Kinda shocked at the price. Hoping I still grabbed a choice grade. Thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19150 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 08:14 am Very decent example. Perhaps AU58++, extending into low MS. Photos are getting better--not an easy task most times. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 08:43 am I agree. 58 to possibly 63 if indeed MS. Report this Post to the Staff
captainkurt Pillar of the Community United States 1406 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 08:49 am Surprised at the AU thoughts. I do not see wear on this coin. Rims look MS. Agree strike is weak however. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 09:03 am The only reason I posted 58 is the surfaces are tough to read and I'm not seeing the original as struck lustre in the fields. I think your light source may be too low. Report this Post to the Staff
captainkurt Pillar of the Community United States 1406 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 09:15 am Thank you for that feedback! I always seem to post pictures that show the details on marks and strike as that is what I focus on when grading. Luster is an in hand thing that is easier to judge for me but harder to photograph. Plus photos of luster hide marks really easily. If I was posting questions on ms65/ms66 coins I would definitely try and capture more luster. The new photo editor is a huge improvement for phone pictures but looks like a light box and lens is still on my list of purchase needs. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 10:37 am Certainly not less than 58. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18662 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 11:26 am i'd say thats a pretty good improvement over your previous photos. AU58 or MS63. I'm leaning AU. the scratch across the right column looks a little deep. the only thing I cant tell is remaining luster especially on the fields. Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 11:34 am more big hits than usual for uncirculated, that plus most phone photos hide surface detail, so I think this might be AU58, but if the surfaces are free of rubs then MS-63, pics too blurry to tell if there is a RPM Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 04/30/2022 9:04 pm AU-55 , too many issues to be MS . Report this Post to the Staff
