indian_hoarder Pillar of the Community United States 5079 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 6:27 pm Your thoughts on this one? Think that scratch on lower reverse will keep it from straight grading?

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 6:47 pm I don't think the scratch will detail it, but it appears cleaned in these pics. Can you show it with diffused lighting? Report this Post to the Staff
indian_hoarder Pillar of the Community United States 5079 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 6:59 pm I wish. I suck at photos. Appears fully original in hand. Are these better? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 7:17 pm That's better. I'll say F-12 straight, but not premium for the grade. Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5668 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 7:28 pm The reverse looks stronger, I'd say VF-20 straight. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19150 Posts	Posted 08/31/2023 8:51 pm I could see F15+ here. Appears to me to be an old cleaning. Would love to see the piece in-hand. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15420 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 05:26 am I say F15 range. Might have been cleaned at some point and now retoned. Should straight grade IMO. If it were mine I'd put it into an ANACS holder for my heirs to be able to sell it. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18662 Posts	Posted 09/01/2023 11:03 am i have an 09S vdb that has a light scratch on the obv field PCGS returned it as XF Genuine - scratched. the scratch on this the reverse of this one appears to be about the same or deeper your original photos lighting was making the coin surfaces appear to be cleaned. your new ones have less glare and do not imo look cleaned. 50/50 chance it comes back straight. as for grade the obv looks VG10 reverse VF25. i'll net it to F15 possibly details. here's mine before it was sent in Report this Post to the Staff
