My coin money is now blown for a month. However, with the exception of a few hits, this coin more than delivers what I was looking to put in my 7070 for this very tough hole. I am awaiting delivery, and have return priveleges if it doesn't meet my expectations. It resides in a problem free ANACS slab. Opinions? Grade away!   Edited by johnny54321

I'll throw AU-58 out there. Very attractive coin.

Wear on the hair lines above the headband on the obverse and as well as the leaves on the reverse. Maybe EF-40, which is pushing it, but I wouldn't go much higher with the scratch on her cheek.

I'll say EF-45, depending on the luster. I have absolutely no experience in grading these, so my guess is probably way of the grade ANACS gave. Either way, great coin.

I'd say AU-55. That's a pretty nice one. I need one of those for my 7070 too.

I will say EF-40 they seem to be tough on these things in my opinion. I have seen many EF coins I would have swore were AU at least

No matter what the grade, it's a beautiful coin. I love this type.

Your right on wheatguy! ANACS gave it XF-45. I think it certainly has AU details if you compare it with other certified 1814 CHLCs on Heritage, but there is probably something holding it back...like the luster. These are very tough to find with descent planchets. Anyways here is the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...TRK:MEWNX:ITThis has been a big coin buying week, and I have to sell some junk silver to help pay for all of this...lol Edited by johnny54321

I think it's an AU coin. Wear is very light on the hair above Ms. Liberty's coronet and on the highest leaves of the wreath. EF-45 seems very conservative. Any way you slice it, this is a beautiful type coin.

Thank you all for the feedback. Anyways, this will be the most expensive coin(outside of $20 gold) that I will be de-slabbing. Also, these coins are quite susceptible to corrosion. I have heard that olive oil may help protect from corrosion, but I also obviously dont want to put something on the coin that will harm it. Bryan1315, I know that you also recently purchased a high end CHLC for your Dansco. Are you taking any measures to protect it? This may be one I will consider resubmitting some day. For comparison sake, here is the latest 1814 that sold on Heritage. http://coins.ha.com/common/view_ite...36&Lot_No=97 It is the same die variety(S-294) and is graded AU-53. Now this one certainly has cleaner surfaces, and probably more luster; but I think mine actually has a little bit stronger detail(Could be due to an earlier die state or strike). Oh, and this one sold for $2,760!  TNFC is interesting because there prices are usually quite high. Occasionally though there are some really good buys. Edited by johnny54321
