Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 07/13/2022 10:12 pm Thank you all for the opinions! I agree with those that said the coin has had an old cleaning and was net graded down to AU-50. That's exactly what PCGS said. Personally, I like the coin. The cleaning is clearly old and while it did leave a "glossy" look to it, it's not that unattractive in hand. It seems that buying AU-50 coins is similar to buying MS-60 coins. Sometimes you might get one that looks better, but has a minor problem that isn't bad enough to warrant a details grade. Thanks for playing! Report this Post to the Staff
jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 07/14/2022 11:25 am AU-50 was my guess, and it seems to be right on the mark. Personally I think PCGS shouldn't give so much leeway to Seated dollars, and I think they should've called this coin cleaned. Quote: Personally, I like the coin. That's all that matters! I am glad that you found an 1870 CC dollar that you are happy with. Quote: It seems that buying AU-50 coins is similar to buying MS-60 coins. I guess so. MS-60 just means that it is a problem UNC. Whether it is scratches, hairlines, cabinet rub, etc. AU-50 could be a problem AU, but it could just be a coin with more wear. Suffering from bust half fever.
