Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 10/27/2006 8:56 pm I need help. I'm wanting to lean toward EF on this one, but the wear and minor damage has me wondering if it might not be a VF. Ralph Image: 1879.jpg 89.83 KB Image: 1879 Rev.jpg 78.43 KB Report this Post to the Staff

Noxx Valued Member United States 66 Posts	Posted 10/28/2006 04:41 am I'm too new at this to give you anything definitive, besides that's freds job. In terms of wear it seems EF to me, altho it's certainly been cleaned... or something, pretty rough-lookin. Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 10/28/2006 11:52 am For the record, I try to grade strictly by technical standards, without factoring in nicks or minor damage which might bodybag it at one TPG while being ignored at the next. As an error collector, I do not have the luxury of passing up a rare type simply because it has a rim ding. Ralph, I think XF40 is reasonable for this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Ralph Pillar of the Community United States 1582 Posts	Posted 10/29/2006 3:25 pm Okay - EF-40 it is! Noxx - I'm still learning to enhance my scans, and the discoloration in the photo doesn't appear on the coin in hand. I'm assuming that was the determining factor in your assumption of it being cleaned. Blame the mechanic, not the machine! Report this Post to the Staff
