    Saw this coin and I had to have it. It's absolutely beautiful in hand. It's also a pretty cool overdate - 1834/4.

    So go ahead and guess the grade that PCGS gave it. I'll bet absolutely none of you get this one "right."

    I would grade it XF45 and I think PCGS also did so, but wouldn’t be shocked if it got an AU50. V. nice coin, BTW.

    VF30... I want to say VF35 OBV but the REV is VF30.

    I'm going a bit off the wall here, but will give it AU58. I don't think it should be that high, but I see luster and what might pass for wear on stars, etc., could be a weak strike/worn die.

    My guess is XF45. Nice coin regardless of the grade.

    TPG AU50.

    I think you're going to tell us it's something sick like TPG AU58. :wacky:

    I'll say 40, but 45 or 50 would not shock me at all.

    My eye makes it a 50 but the TPGs called it 55. Nice looking coin.

    The only reason I picked it was because no one else did. ~ Chris:hilarious::hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:

    You can't ruin my day - 78 degrees and sunny here in Florida, no yard work to do, the golf tournament on TV, wife is out with her friends, adult beverage in hand, nesting pair of red-tail hawks flying around my oak trees and about to put the wife's cats outside. And this morning at the diner I: 1) Argued about the death penalty with my friend the judge, and won, and 2) Showed and gave history on my new Hibernia Farthing to my Irish friend. BTW, love your posts.

    I see no reason for what I believe is a desirable specimen, but I've received unbelievable explanations as "DETAILS" or MS61 for a coin as that. Please tell us, as the suspense is overwhelming. Thanks for sharing!
