mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2602 Posts	Posted 05/09/2011 2:37 pm I'm terrible at grading these, but this is a very nice piece. Full rivets, lots of head details, lots of feather details on the reverse. I'll say VF with a shot at EF. Not sure how much Eagle feather detail you must have to get EF. Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 05/09/2011 6:34 pm I'm thinking more like AU-55 with a lot of crust. It doesn't have AU luster, but I think ite's because the dirt and crust is covering the luster, though it could be hiding a very old cleaning. Report this Post to the Staff
OneBowl Pillar of the Community United States 759 Posts	Posted 05/09/2011 7:12 pm I'll go with AU-50, primarily because I've seen XF slabbed examples with the toes and drapery across the thigh much less evident. Minimal wear and only on high spots. Hey, if I'm wrong, let me know why. That's how I learn. Report this Post to the Staff
jeffatNJC Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 05/10/2011 12:36 am This may the best looking Standing Liberty quarter I have ever seen. I have a 1927 S that has been graded AU-50, and I believe this looks better...quality is off the charts AU-55 to MS-58 Report this Post to the Staff
rjkingston Pillar of the Community United States 642 Posts	Posted 05/10/2011 01:21 am Thanks JeffatNJC, You might need to get out to more coin shops though..... I actually just sent this one off to another CCF member. Type I SLQ are a great design, one of my favorites. Report this Post to the Staff

mdh157 Pillar of the Community United States 952 Posts	Posted 05/13/2011 7:36 pm looks like a bit of wear on the eagle's breast and a hair on the knee.....i'd say AU-53/55 Report this Post to the Staff
