1925-D Indian Quarter Eagle Gold

No. It's been cleaned and not worth the price to grade. It might be AU but it looks more to be XF-45 to me. Too much glare from the holder to be sure.

An now the color looks wrong IMO! Too dull. Cannot wait to see more.

 

@Insider before I go further is this enough detail to see the Mint

 

Alright, here are two more pics out of the holder.

 

I'm going to fix a drink and be right back!

 

Just watched a 1913 ungraded that looked very similar to mine go for $425 on proxibid. Crazy!

 

@skully88 are you able to take a photo of just Obverse by with an zoomed in view of the back of the Neck? A different photo of the Reverse zoomed into the Mint Mark and Arrows? Outside of a holder

 

Looks much better in those pictures. This is why gold is hard to grade. It has a shot at grading AU in my opinion, but it sure looked cleaned in the other pics. $275 is a fair price. I would have paid as much as $250, but would be buying to re-sell. I would hope to make a profit at the $250 price, and that would be factoring in about $30 worth of fees.

 

This is as good as I can get.

 

For me I would need better resolution photos .. First I see what appears to be the wrong font on the reverse, next some gouges or pock marks on the secondary fields. From what I can see more definition is needed on the Obverse on the back of the Indian Neck and Initials on the Obverse
These would leave me with questions..

 

Thx, gonna be hard for me to get better pics, all I have is an iphone. Any suggestions on cameras or add ons for iphone is appreciated.
What's up with the initials, is that not common? And I don't see much difference in the font from other 1925's I've seen

 

There is no issue with the font or initials. It is genuine.

 

It looks a whole lot better to me in the latest pics, those first pics looked clean now it don't look like it has been.

 

Like I said, I have some MS62 Indians that will look just as cleaned at certain angles. This might straight grade.

 

What I see on the Obverse is a PU above the Date that I always thought was BLP not PUB from what I can make out on these photos. I am just saying based on my money I would want better Authenticity. The images of the reverse Font has different Style than I have seen once again that may just be the photos. Call me cautious.

 

Alright, now that is all said and done, what shall I do with it now. I'm not sure I want to add to my collection. Where is the best place to sell and should I grade it first?

 

Not sure you want to add to your collection? Why did you buy it then? To resell? I still would not grade it. You would be spending $20-$30 more bucks on it, and it would not grade high enough to get that money back.

 

It may be good coin don't go with anymore than that from me .. I just would want to see it better before I would pull the trigger.

 

I would wait and give this Thread some time as I am sure you will receive other ideas. What ever the case is this coin is not UNC and you still have too much in this unless it would grade over MS63 and that will never happen with this coin.

 

Good for you!
