Just bought what i consider to be my first serious coin purchase. Up until now i have been sticking with mostly proof/mint sets and the occasional morgan or assorted half. Pulled the trigger and bought a 1915 quarter eagle. Absolutely beautiful coin if i do say so. being kind of new to this hobby though i figured i would turn to you guys to help me grade it. I am thinking it is AU, but wanted you to let me know what i am missing or if it is worth grading to see if it goes higher
That lighting is really weird -- on the reverse, it looks like the eagle's figure is in relief to the field, even though the details appear incuse. These are too hard for me to grade even in-hand.
These were some scans i made at home. I will try to take some clearer pictures with my camera tonight.....just havent quite gotten the hang of scanning coins yet
New better pictures. Let me know what you think an appropriate grade is for this one now Sorry for the **** poor lighting but these are much better quality at least .
