numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11911 Posts	Posted 08/21/2022 10:35 pm This is another coin that I bid on and did not win tonight. The TI/TII variety is on the scarcer side of the 76-S T$1 varieties. The coin was bid to $190.XX with a few minutes to go so I placed a bid a little over $400. Well I was outbid by 3 people including the eventual winner who bid over $737 which surprised me. The listing had 6 terrible out of focus pictures and two that made it possible to actually see the coin, although not the best. See those better pictures below. https://www.ebay.com/itm/175383897003 For the coin to be worth $737, it would have to grade AU58 or thereabout. Do you think it makes AU58? IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

JasonKflo Pillar of the Community United States 1694 Posts	Posted 08/21/2022 10:38 pm I bid 250 on this myself AU Details cleaned. Plus appears to have large scratches on obverse. Someone got taken . Type II/II is scarcer and type II/II with large S is very rare. This looks like Tye II/II with medium S Edited by JasonKflo 08/21/2022 11:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 08/22/2022 12:50 am I find it odd that the seller referred to this coin with "Statue Of Liberty" in the listing title. It was struck several years before the dedication of the land mark mentioned. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5684 Posts	Posted 08/22/2022 01:54 am Even if it has high AU or Unc sharpness, it's a problem coin with a past cleaning and possible ED under the black areas. Not a smart buy IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18714 Posts	Posted 08/22/2022 08:29 am with the above comments and not sure it would be a got bet at $400. I think it would grade at AU55 details due to eye appeal and missing luster I dont think its strong enough to pull a 58. so better off not getting this one. Report this Post to the Staff
