Help with grade on 1909-S Indian

So, I am thinking about purchasing this coin. It looks solid to me, but I'm still not an expert. Can I get your guys opinion on what you think it would grade if I bought it and sent it in to PCGS. Thanks as always.

HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY FOR IT??

 

If I can get it for under $1500, I'd be really happy. What do you think Tony?

 

It's too nice for me to try to guess.

 

I know, huh?

 

There's a reason that coin hasn't been graded. Questionable color.

 

I wouldn't be too keen on shelling out MS63RD money for a raw coin which is firmly on the list of "don't buy raw unless you're an expert" issues. There is no_way to determine surface originality from these images, except that even allowing for imperfect White Balance I still don't like the color.

Tread very, very carefully, and first wonder why a 4-figure coin is not in a slab.

 

Buy a slabbed version of that coin, IMHO

 

FYI, courtesy around here partially consists of getting off the caps lock. Thanks!

 

I once asked a guy about this and he replied that he had poor vision, so he used all caps for his benefit

 

If that's the case, then I apologize.

 

Thanks guys. I appreciate the advice and comments. I agree and I think I will end up passing.
