nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15446 Posts	Posted 06/27/2010 3:47 pm I'll say again that your photography is excellent ....... more than adequate for us to offer some opinions on the coins. You can read the history of this coin here: http://www.coincommunity.com/commem...r_dollar.asp This is the first one from your collection that I believe might get a "Genuine - Not Gradable" tag from a TPG. Two major concerns ....... rim damage on the obverse at 1:00 and 8:00 and I believe it has seen a cleaning at some point in the distant past. The coin has obviously seen some circulation use which is not unusual for a Lafayette. All in all a fun example of the only Silver Commemorative dollar (Classic era). Thanks for sharing with us.
