mshev Valued Member United States 312 Posts	Posted 05/17/2011 10:26 pm I'm thinking VF-35 - mainly due to the wear to the shield and leg. I want to go higher due to the overall attractiveness of the coin (looks like there are even some hints of luster?), but those areas hold it back. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6389 Posts	Posted 05/17/2011 11:20 pm I'm thinking EF-40, with fair amount of luster in the protected areas of the fields. The very flat head suggests the strike was soft so some of the detail weakness is likely strike-related. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 05/17/2011 11:36 pm I'm actually kind of surprised because to me it looks like it has most of the luster and even a carthweel. The detail is so weak. Edited by coinguybrian 05/17/2011 11:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 05/17/2011 11:59 pm looks to me like a weak strike... EF+ Report this Post to the Staff
mshev Valued Member United States 312 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 12:21 am Mind posting a larger version of the obverse? It's definitely an interesting coin in terms of wear vs weak strike. I can see where the cartwheel would be - just needs a little more lighting to bring it out more. Report this Post to the Staff

johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 2:25 pm I'd say EF-45. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 7:08 pm I had this at a minimum of AU-53. To me, it just didn't look like it had much actual wear (since the luster is not dulled much), but rather strike issues. Report this Post to the Staff
mshev Valued Member United States 312 Posts	Posted 05/18/2011 7:50 pm It's a bit tough to tell without being able to take a closer look at the areas of the weak strike - the difference could very well be a matter of needing to see it in person. Report this Post to the Staff
