I could see some marks at the 12 to 1:00 position above the headdress..take a peek.. Not to sure what those marks are..I would send it in to PCGS or NGC...If marks are no big deal then I say MS61-62. Some small marks and light scratches. Look just above the "E" in Liberty and you will see either a die crack or contact mark..I cant tell..with old gold it can be difficult to say the least!

Could be clash marks. __________________ The Other Frank "Buy The Book Before The Coin!" http://www.whitmanbooks.com/Default....wUpcoming_1208   02-04-2007, 04:41 PM   #5 (permalink) GDJMSP Numismatist     Join Date: Nov 2002 Location: PA Posts: 23,528 I wouldn't submit the coin for grading, it's a body bag candidate because of the scratches. __________________ knowledge ..... share it   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
