    Hey everyone. I got this coin a while back and I think it is XF. I would very very much appreciate it though if someone were to give me some clarification. Also, not a bad picture from a phone eh? Thanks so much! 2013-06-25 21.41.41-1.jpg 2013-06-25 21.45.02-1.jpg

    XF-ish, but what's going on at 6:35 on the reverse?

    Are you talking about the cardboard from the 2x2 it's in?

    There is a nick/discontinuance on the rim of the coin at 6:35 on both the obverse and reverse. What's causing that?

    Rather, what is that?

    right of the date on the obverse?

    Right under 9 on the obverse......what's happening here? There's a gap.

    The slight indention running around the side of it?

    I think what Ken is referring to, are two small spacers that seem to hold the coin from touching the 2x2. One at 12 the other at 6 o'clock. It's easy to see on my HD24" monitor, with my CPU, but looks like part of the coin on my 9" Tablet.

    OK. That makes me feel better. I am so sorry for my ignorance, but it was quite simply the 2x2 I had it in. I observed the coin in hand, and then placed it in a new 2x2, because that one was so old. No, that has nothing to do with the coin. I'm sorry for not clarifying.

    I was hoping to get more input on the grade though...
