    It's nice but there is something about that rim it seems a bit different. I'm new so I could be wrong. There is some kind of dot after America on the reverse

    I'll say EF-40, cleaned.

    I would say it looks about EF40-45. It looks like it may have a had a dip but is beginning to re-tone some.

    Leadfoot there is no spoon

    XF 45 details, cleaned, net VF 35. PASS. Very nice strike though!

    thanks guys. I would have given the coin more credit, but I didn't bid on it anyways so it doesn't matter.

    cheers!

    I'll have to agree, very nice strike and obviously cleaned. I'm going to say VF30. I dont like the rash of hits on her arm.

    Nor do I, nor the hits in the field... but they're not too bad if not for the cleaning.

    Arrows and Rays. Gotta love 'em !

    Yeah, the hits are distracting though I imagine it is not nearly as obvious in hand.

    here's another. this one is graded. opinions?

    Wow. So close to the first one. I'll give it an identical grade: EF-40, cleaned.

    Deja vu? No?

    is it just me, or does that first one look counterfeit?

    It does, but its not. It is a VF-25 IMO only because it looks like someone took a hatchet to her arm.

    I think the rim looks funny that could be because of the cleaning. It seems to have some flattening like it's been spooned. Ice

    thanks for the inputs.
