BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 05/26/2025 9:53 pm It appears genuine and I'd call that graffiti and cleaned, VG details. I wouldn't pay $1,300 for it. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18649 Posts	Posted 05/28/2025 2:11 pm reverse weakness. I would net the coin VG details (scratched) VG8+ full retail would be right around that $1400 mark so the coin is overpriced imo. personally i'd rather have a lower grade straight grade than a higher grade details coin.
