Man is that what you guys call a woody? I'm just trying to figure out why one side would be cleaned and not the other. I'm going to vote 53.
Yes, I am not that experienced with woody's but I believe it is not a (genuine coin). Putting my vote in for 53 please.
Believe me, there is nothing special about grading woodies. However, they can be very difficult to see and, from what I have seen, they sometimes take a hit for being a woody.
This and http://www.cointalk.com/t205596/ will be ending tonight. New rounds will be posted, but how much analysis remains to be determined. Wow again. Now up top 10 responders with 7 different answers. I can guarantee at least 7 of the answers are wrong.
My pictures don't do the wheats justice. They are the sharpest and most complete I have seen on a 23-S. The obverse is a good strike (again for a 23-S), has a few minor ticks, and, unfortunately, the slightest rub on the tie, cheek and lapel. I really do not see any rubs on the reverse. NGS wound up with an AU-58. Probably technically correct, but I have seen several coins with more wear called MS(AU)-62/63. Standings later.
Boy, that did not take long with only 20 scores. Anyway, absolutely no change in the standing. In fact, there was only one score that even changed - Cazkaboom. Top 10.
