Dowhat Pillar of the Community United States 876 Posts	Posted 11/15/2025 08:37 am Looking for opinions as to a grade on this one. I put it at about F15 before deduction for details from environmental damage and the scratched face exposing Shiney copper. Let me know what you think. Report this Post to the Staff

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5663 Posts	Posted 11/15/2025 10:03 am I'd say sharpness is closer to F12, and as you said details from ED. Report this Post to the Staff

panzaldi Bedrock of the Community United States 18645 Posts	Posted 11/17/2025 09:17 am a TPG would not assign a numeric grade to this coin. if you want one I would net the coin to F12(ED). A straight graded 02 goes for about $300. probably a $100 coin keep in mind that the planchets for these were procured from England coming over in barrels. moisture and salty humidity played havoc on many of them, more so if the planchet was out the outskirts of the barrel. I would be more concerned with the verdigris on the obv. in order to preserve the coin, I would suggest a dip in verdicare to help stabilize it and then place it in an airtite holder. there are 13 varieties for the year. if you have some time here is the link to the PCGS priceguide that lists them. https://www.pcgs.com/prices/detail/.../most-active Report this Post to the Staff
