zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 694 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 5:25 pm Hi folks not my normal area of coin collecting but I bought an unseen lot for fun and there were a few US coins in with the lot. If I graded it by UK standards It would prob grade as fine So I am thinking maybe VF-20 on crossover grade? your opinions as ever are most appreciated. T.I.A. Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2952 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 5:57 pm What a nice looking 1816 there Gradewise, I actually see an XF coming through possibly to a higher relief strike. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 8:05 pm VF25, maybe VF30, old cleaning, still acceptable in my opinion. Nice looker.

johnjkedel Pillar of the Community United States 594 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 10:11 pm VF-30. Quite possibly cleaned sometime in the past... I like it. Not sure of the variety but maybe N-4? Edited by johnjkedel 11/20/2023 10:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff

zookeeperz Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 694 Posts	Posted 11/21/2023 06:48 am Thanks I thought I was in the ballpark of VF. No idea of its history came in a lot . None of the US coins were mentioned . Was a nice surprise for once Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18630 Posts	Posted 11/21/2023 09:33 am I'm at VF25 with a shot at 30. there is a good chance it had an old cleaning and there is residual staining at UNITED and some haloing around the profile. 50/50 chance it grades straight Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36523 Posts	Posted 11/21/2023 11:13 am VF-30 straight grade. Nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff
MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 2001 Posts	Posted 11/21/2023 3:41 pm Nice looking coin for it's age. I have it at VF as well. I believe that this was the only denomination of coin struck by the U.S. Mint during 1816. Report this Post to the Staff
