purelywasted Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 1:34 pm Nice coin! First thoughts were undergraded or ICCS netgrading due to cleaning. But zoomed in and think the ef40 is about right, but a really nice ef40. Just a touch too much wear for AU. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 1:40 pm Grade seems about right, but it's hard to see the surface details clearly in these pics. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 2:19 pm Grade is good at EF40. Pics aren't very good. Can't really assess luster, toning, or surface details. For full trends price I would expect one with great eye appeal, or undergraded. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff
doubleeagle59 Pillar of the Community Canada 2495 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 5:12 pm Pics show the coin in a better light (pardon the pun). That said, it's an NGC AU, but I wouldn't get excited as a Canadian collector will still give you EF money for it. Report this Post to the Staff

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5585 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 8:17 pm Too much wear on the Obv crown, his hair and mustache to be AU. XF-40 looks right, maybe a 40+ Report this Post to the Staff

NumismaticsFTW Pillar of the Community United States 2281 Posts	Posted 03/26/2023 8:54 pm First thoughts, looks cleaned/dipped. You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think. -Neil deGrasse Tyson Report this Post to the Staff
