Having a hell of a month at the auctions, have been losing almost every coin I really like. This one caught my eye and I really liked it's look. The bidding went a bit higher then I originally wanted to spend on this particular coin, but with all the near misses this month I tossed an extra 10 on top of my "top" bid and it paid off cause now she's mine So here you go GTG on this puppy
My grade would be EF-40, but I imagine that it's higher than that. I would say EF-45, but it has a few more marks in the fields than I would like for that grade.
XF Details Environmental Damage is my guess...the dark patches seem to be a little more than what is acceptable on a problem free example
got you all this time hehe My opinion was.. xf45 detail Env dmg PCGS thought otherwise I honestly don't see cleaning but then again none of you thought so either and I like her I think she has good eye appeal but not so much in the close up pics...
I see evidence of friction in the right and left in the right and left obverse fields and to a lesser extent, the reverse. You can see original pieces with a similar look. Are there hairlines in the bright areas? You can’t see that in these photos.
