TDColl Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 04/24/2010 6:18 pm Back on the "other" thread about this dollar, I mentioned that I thought it would grade, and I still do. The TPG's don't get too excited about a few hairlines,or if the coin is a bit bright, they will just net it down a bit.Contact marks, if not too heavy, are generally overlooked since these coins are big, weighty, and were slung around quite a bit. I was aware of that today, as I re-photo'd my 1846-- these babies are hefty! Now, if it really has that much luster on it, a 58 grade would not be out of the question, IMO. Looks like you got a really, really good deal on this one. I'm excited to see more photos, and how it grades out. Report this Post to the Staff

If I were to sit it on a window sill for a while I bet it would tone nice and even and those marks would disappear. Edited by coins92 04/28/2010 4:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
