1920-D LWC - Better Pics Added

Sorry for the lousy pictures, they even look worse now than they did when I took them. I will try to post better ones tonight.

I think it might be XF (or better?), too.

Duke, try to take the picture as straight on as possible...this will help you get the entire coin in focus.

It's obvious to me the die had difficulty striking this coin.

The bulge/waviness in the east obverse field is interesting -- unless it's toning that's tricking my eye.
Is that an indent near the L in LIBERTY?

For this coin, I'd dare go into AU because the type of wear I see on a very weakly-struck cent I cannot attribute to circulation.

But for the few dings on the reverse rim and whatever that mark is by the "L" I'd easily go AU.

Right now, I'm daring to go there.

:P

Nope, just an optical illusion. It was advertised as an AU but I paid XF money for it. It's a nice looking coin in hand with a very weak strike. I originally thought I would grade it XF45, but I think I going to lean toward AU50. There is a slight little nick near the L in liberty, but overall it's a good looking coin.
