Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 02:58 am Just wondering what you thought this one grades, it was purchased raw from Jake's Marketplace and the more I look at it the more I don't agree with their assigned grade but I am not very good with the series so thought I would ask all of you what you thought from the pictures Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 09:29 am Nice looking coin. Liberty in the shield looks strange or is it just the picture? I would grade this as AU-55 cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff
wwhitman Pillar of the Community United States 1415 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 1:05 pm I think it is slightly better Ms-60 and not cleaned. Great coin regardless. How much did it cost ya - if I might ask. Report this Post to the Staff
BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 1:10 pm I'd guess AU55-58. Very nice coin but the rubs are a bit much for it to go MS. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 1:49 pm Definitely a bit of rub, enough to bring it to AU-55 IMO. Hopefully you didn't pay MS money since I'm pretty sure it has seen some light circulation. The color could be original but an old cleaning is a possibility. I'd carefully check for hairline scratches under a good light, but based on these views the coin has good eye appeal and doesn't appear to have any serious problems. Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 04/23/2009 4:51 pm I didn't actually pay for the coin so I am not 100% sure what they paid for the coin but Jakes Marketplace graded the coin at MS-63 and as I said the more I look at it the more I disagree with their grade. I have always heard good things about this place and thats why I told someone to go there when they wanted to buy me something but now I have a totally different opinion about them. Its already in my dansco7070 album so I can't return it and it was a gift and I think it meets the requirements for the 7070 album (atleast AU and problem free) but still doesn't meet a MS-63 grade to me. Oh yeah, I don't see any evidence of any cleaning on this coin even under a microscope Report this Post to the Staff
