Thinking about bidding on this. I'm figuring F-15 to VF-20 grade, but would like opinions on whether you think it would straight grade. Edit: This is Obv 2, Rev 2, correct?    Edited by Wideglide

I think the obv is F15 and the rev is VF20-25. I would net it at VF20 but the obv is underwhelming. If you can get it cheap then it's ok but it is not a premium coin for the grade imho.
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."

Those are the only pics that were posted, Frog. I would have liked to see the Obverse with the same lightning as the 2nd Reverse.

It was cleaned at some point but would straight grade today

Have you asked the seller for this image? Strange he would omit it.

I'm at VF20, prefer the color of the 2nd reverse pic. If it looks like that in hand, then nice example!

VF20 appears to have old cleaning based on first two photos. Market Acceptable.

Wideglide; I think you're in the ballpark. I wouldn't go any higher than a VF 20 net. The reverse does appear to be stronger.

I think if I can get it at F-15 to VF-20 Red Book, I'll be doing okay. Thanks to all, for your opinions! |
