nolawyer Pillar of the Community United States 763 Posts	Posted 05/27/2011 3:18 pm Here is the ANACS grade: I think this is a difficult series to grade. To my eyes, it looks to be AU50, maybe AU53. I think the coin has great eye appeal for the grade and I am happy with it. Report this Post to the Staff

Las_Vegas_Larry Pillar of the Community United States 817 Posts	Posted 05/27/2011 10:10 pm Not saying anything bad about your good luck on the grading but that coin is very over graded. Might be why ANACS does not usually bring the same prices for grade as NGC and PCGS. Report this Post to the Staff
DavidZerbato Pillar of the Community United States 1081 Posts	Posted 05/28/2011 09:17 am It's a beautiful coin and has great fields, but I too feel it's over graded. I would give it an XF45 as I believe the wear on the breast is much too great to give it an AU grade, been through 1 too many hands. It's also comparable to my NGC XF45 FE not to say they are the gold standard. Report this Post to the Staff
