muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7265 Posts	Posted 05/26/2011 10:31 am She's been around but no damage just good wear, g-4. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6426 Posts	Posted 05/26/2011 11:07 am The reverse looks like a solid VG-8, maybe even VG-10. The obverse however might barely scrape a G-4. The strong reverse could bring the overall grade to G-6. The attractive problem-free surfaces likely will bring the market value higher than the technical grade would suggest. The 1801 is a tough date and this is a nice example. Report this Post to the Staff
trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 05/26/2011 12:46 pm I knew I'd be obverse limited on this one & was hoping it might hit G4. Any ideas as to why the obverse is more worn? Edited by trdhrdr007 05/26/2011 12:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/26/2011 12:49 pm The obverse might make G-4, and the reverse looks at least VG-8. I would give it an over all grade of G-6. Still a nice coin and one which I would like to have. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 05/26/2011 5:02 pm I agree with Jaobler, around G-4 to G-6 net. That's a really nice coin, I wish I had one! Report this Post to the Staff
Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 05/27/2011 10:57 am Man I hate to be a killjoy my guess is FR2. The reverse is G4 or better. The obverse has much more wear. On the obverse there a lot of scratches over liberty 11:30 to about 2:00 may have been pushed over a rough serface. Report this Post to the Staff
trdhrdr007 Pillar of the Community United States 2335 Posts	Posted 09/15/2011 4:51 pm This one just got back from Anacs with a G4. I'm a little bit surprised it didn't come back with a details grade. There are a lot of scratches that are visible under a 10x loupe. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4992 Posts	Posted 09/15/2011 10:48 pm Net grade of G-4 due to the strong reverse. Obverse is closer to AG3. Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 09/16/2011 11:08 pm Obverse looks AG and the reverse looks VG so a G-4/6 grade seems about right. Report this Post to the Staff
