JasonKflo Pillar of the Community United States 1694 Posts	Posted 08/16/2023 5:09 pm Well this one came in today. The reverse is really nice in hand . The obverse is to minus that mark on the top right. Almost looks like it had a rubber band type thing on it for ever lol. Not sure if conservation would hurt by exposing brighter silver or help It is straight graded . Liberty is hard to photo but there is a little more there than I can get in the pics LI (top of B) ( top of R and T) and Y are present if that helps. Anyway a tough seated half I was happy to find.

pristine2 Pillar of the Community United States 1048 Posts	Posted 08/16/2023 5:42 pm It's got character! Not to mention a fantastic date.The wear pattern seems somewhere around F15, but if they straight-graded it with that mark, I'm guessing maybe they netted it out at F12. Report this Post to the Staff
JasonKflo Pillar of the Community United States 1694 Posts	Posted 08/16/2023 5:51 pm Yeah I wonder if conservation would help the mark at all or just reveal brightness underneath Report this Post to the Staff

GMS5 Pillar of the Community Canada 1527 Posts	Posted 08/17/2023 10:38 am From the pictures provided, I'll say you have 1871-CC WB-7, Large CC. This is the second use of this obverse die and only use of this reverse die in 1871. It has a rarity of: R4 Very nice coin, I'll say F-12 straight grade. Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18680 Posts	Posted 08/17/2023 3:50 pm I've seen those black marks on other silver. not sure what causes it however I don't think it can be removed. in that case I think a TPG would call it PMD F12 details Report this Post to the Staff
JasonKflo Pillar of the Community United States 1694 Posts	Posted 08/17/2023 5:11 pm This one is straight graded F-15 I think it looks good for the grade though I think it's in the f-12 to f-15 fence Report this Post to the Staff
GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 08/18/2023 01:55 am I"ll say it grade F12 because it is very similar to mine which also grades F12. Report this Post to the Staff
