Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 10:23 am I'll say MS-66, unsure if FS. Report this Post to the Staff
panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18635 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 10:28 am rims have quite a few scratches. pretty good mark at K4 obv. minor marks on jacket. scratch across left pillar. now the elephant in the room..the steps. I've seen hits like this on the steps designated as FS and some not receive the designation. personally I would not buy it as FS even if it graded at that. they are so inconsistent with this. its such a common coin due to some discoloration in the fields and some of the devices along with those rims and marks i'll give it a 63. due to the strike here I'm not ruling out proof and comparing it to other 41S proofs Edited by panzaldi 05/30/2024 07:23 am Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6454 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 11:25 am The rims were what concerned me, too. When I purchased it, I was too focused on the devices. It wasn't until the next day that I noticed those rim hits. I was further confused by the PCGS catalog, because all the MS65-66 coins shown have visible rim dings. I didn't have any aspirations for full steps, I think that ding and the die wear would make FS very unlikely. The coin is the FS-501 variety, Large-S. I plan to keep it to study for a while, and hopefully identify the specific die. But some day it might be graded, liquidated, or both. If I picked a lemon instead of a cherry, there is a short return period on the coin. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...images/38487 Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19114 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 1:57 pm Interesting. I'll go with a strong MS63. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6454 Posts	Posted 05/29/2024 3:53 pm I appreciate the help, guys! I will take photos of my own when the coin arrives, but for now it seems like a keeper. I personally found the late die state and toning to be appealing, but I know that's subjective.
