jdheyne Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 04/16/2006 7:12 pm Hello all. The obverse has a nice golden tone to it, kind of hard to get the pictures to show it. The reverse is rainbowed, which you should be able to see pretty well. I am sure this is an uncirculated coin, most likely the lower end of the MS scale with all the marks on the cheek But this is still a very attractive coin, IMO. Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 04/16/2006 9:16 pm I would say ms-61, I think all the marks would keep it from going any higher than that. It is definately a uncirculated coin and if the marks werent on the cheek it would be a beautiful coin (not saying its ugly by any means) Report this Post to the Staff

Morgan Fred Rest in Peace United States 2684 Posts	Posted 04/17/2006 10:26 pm Ouch! JD, that dig on Liberty's cheek looks pretty serious in the image. Of course, the image might be exaggerating the damage. It certainly looks uncirculated to me, but it's possible the top grading services might bodybag it due to "damage". (Of course, ANACS would still slab it, but label it as damaged.) Presuming that they do not bodybag it, I don't think it would come back as anything much above MS-60 because of the damage to Liberty's face. I don't think PCGS nor NGC would net grade it into a circulated grade. Fred (Now to check to see what the others said.) Report this Post to the Staff
Morgan Fred Rest in Peace United States 2684 Posts	Posted 04/17/2006 10:30 pm OK, looks like we're in general agreement. The scratches on her face is gonna keep the grade down. Sometimes, the grading services will presume a deep dig like that is deliberate and label it "graffiti" Report this Post to the Staff
jdheyne Pillar of the Community United States 772 Posts	Posted 04/17/2006 11:44 pm I posted other pics in a different post. The cheek does not look nearly as bad as it does here in person or the other pics. Report this Post to the Staff
