A couple of months ago I went on a Trade Dollar binge, and bought 5 of them raw (individually). I may continue, and do the full year set of business strikes, but the jury is still out on that. I think I went a little nuts to prove to myself that I had educated myself enough not to get burnt, after getting burnt back in May. I bought a TD that was genuine in the photos, but then I was sent a poorly made counterfeit. Long story short, I bought this one not because I wanted/needed the 77-s, or because of the grade (it's lower then I'd like actually), but because I thought I saw something, and I was right. Can you tell me what it is? Pics are enlargeable by clicking -
In terms of wear, I'd say EF40. There may have been a light cleaning on the obverse (bright fields and light hairlines). The rim hits might preclude a straight grade but you never know. This is the more common of the 2 DDR's for this issue.
