jpbone Pillar of the Community United States 1959 Posts	Posted 08/06/2023 11:27 pm Does this coin grade straight? Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18660 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 07:46 am good question. sometimes its difficult to tell when there are light indicators of it occurring. I might have the same question based on the reverse. lighting here could be the issue on the reverse but imo it grades straight. good chance it was cleaned quite a while back and has retoned enough Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 07:57 am All depends on the surfaces. Could possibly be some slight pitting. Tough coin. I've been working on a circ set of the 1879-1891 half dollars. It is a tough battle, too! Good luck! You got some nice coins there no matter how they grade! Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 08:30 am Another tough date. Agree likely old cleaning, might be maket acceptable. Close to EF. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36741 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 11:01 am Solid VF-35. Possibly cleaned at some point, might get a straight grade now. Report this Post to the Staff
jpbone Pillar of the Community United States 1959 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 10:30 pm I'm hoping this one looks better in hand. Seems some of these dates have a mushy strike. I'll post pics when they arrive. Report this Post to the Staff
jpbone Pillar of the Community United States 1959 Posts	Posted 08/11/2023 4:08 pm On the fence here too. Rare date. Not the best looking coin. I will likely keep it and keep my eye peeled for something better. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 08/11/2023 8:55 pm VF30 details, cleaned, obverse might have damage at shield and under S4, but this is rare enough to merit keeping regardless.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/11/2023 9:01 pm Agree, tough date, but there are many better examples out there. Edited by Coinfrog 08/11/2023 9:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
