Nice luster. I’m not too familiar with the series I’m going to assume that is wear on Miss Liberty’s curls and the eagles right (facing) forward wing. AU 55 Oh and nice coin, enjoy
That's in an NGC MS63 holder, but I would like to see this coin in an 62...... This coin is neverever AU, guys.
Before the reveal, I was debating between AU 58 and MS 63 (the picture made me think there might be wear), with a lean towards 58. If there is no wear, then it definitely looks nice for a 62.
I'd never purchase this coin at a MS-62 price regardless of what the holder says. "Buy the coin, not the holder!!!"
I have found the grading services to be very inconsistent in the way they grade this coin. Part of the trouble is that the coin did not strike up that well. Sometimes they mistake wear for a light strike. I think that your coin is really an AU-58, but it is the kind of piece that ends up in an MS-62 holder. Here are two more. This one is in an NGC MS-62 holder. One of the expert graders here thought that it could go as high as MS-63 or even 64. It has that "look." This one is in a PCGS MS-64, CAC holder. It has stronger luster than the first one but a couple more marks on the obverse.
