I don't agree with the PCGS assessment on this coin. Also, it has not been cleaned. Your brief judgement is appreciated.   |

Images too small (and reverse image too dark) to see surface details clearly.

Looks like a good amount of luster. AU-55.

Coinfrog - why is it that sometimes I can click on a CCF photo and it will enlarge but, mine don't? If I make my photos any larger than they will be outside the proper Crop parameters and I always have to reduce them to the required pixels too. I haven't quite figured out my scope photos either. Try to give this one your best shot and I'll keep trying to do better - deal? I know this is off-topic. Maybe you can PM me with your suggestions?  Edited by dsking

I can't get above AU53. I could see it in a PCGS 55 holder. I compared to my own AU53, also PCGS, and this one is probably about the same or even a little better.
I try to post my photos here around 800x800 and use photoshop or the image optimizer if needed to reduce the file size below 300k.

Pictures depict a low AU coin in 53 to 55 to these old eyes. Definitely better than XF but no where near BU.
Nice coin!

Slider23 - Realizing that my photos aren't the greatest. How did you come to your AU50 conclusion? Just curious.

I'm trying to contribute - but those photos are just too small out of focus and dark for anything other than guesswork.

Seems conservative with all that luster.

I think it's a bit undergraded. A beautiful coin for a gift, too!

Nice coin, I was going to say AU-53 cleaned likely dipped. Quote:
