paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 05/04/2011 11:28 am I have an opportunity to purchase a 1921 SLQ in VF+ condition at a very reasonable price (mayyyyyybe). The coin has a rim Cud which incorporates the right portion of the "1" in 1921 and continue to the rim (duh). Does this substantially affect the value of the coin? Help please!

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 05/04/2011 11:53 am Can't say I'm sure what I'm seeing there, but for my money it's post-mint damage and not a rim Cud. If it's a Cud, it's a Cud which has been affected by post-mint damage. Note the large impact mark near the initial; I suspect that impact threw metal towards the date. It's far too flat (machined-flat, to the eye) to be "just" a Cud. Judging from the looks of the opposite reverse rim, this happened while the coin was laying in the road. Consider the price is less than half of market for the grade. And look elsewhere. Report this Post to the Staff

Its really according to how much of a great deal you are going to get and how bad you want the coin I guess to if its worth it or not. Just be aware a problem coin doesn't have as much value as a problem free version of the same date no matter how rare the coin is Report this Post to the Staff
