Here’s a very interesting key date SLQ that just came my way. I’d love to hear some input on grade and value from the forum. It has a bit of rim damage and a pretty gnarly gash on the reverse so it would never straight grade but it sure would make a nice type set coin. Thanks in advance for any input!
Even with the gash, this is easily one of the nicest specimens I've seen in a while; AU details, at the very least. So rare to find these with a full date!
I love her. Nice balanced look. She's gentle on the eyes. Until you turn her over, that is to say, lol... Seriously, I do like her. Express-grade, technical high EF. Too bad the surgeon can't close up that wound.
You showed me your very nice example, now let me show you mine! I was really lucky that no one else bid and I got this example for $930 delivered. (At least I believe I was lucky) Is that a slight drum rotation??? Maybe that's why it was cheap. J.,T.
I think it is absolutely a details grade because of the damage but it doesn’t seem to be cleaned. No hairlines and it has the faintest remaining luster.
