Please guess the grade of this coin: Also, please comment on if the coin in the photos appeals to you, as I think that may be an interesting discussion....Mike
WAY out of my comfort zone, but I'll guess a PR-66 or 67. I do wonder what the 15 degree from vertical line on the reverse is.....I am guessing a scratch on the plastic and not the coin.
PF-66 but not a cameo. Not a bad coin - very clean surfaces - but it is not especially attractive to me, especially the obverse.
PR65 I don't see a whole lot scratches anyway, really... And some really nice toning... Urgggg.... Okay PR65... Can't wait to see the grade
It appears to me that the coin was slightly mishandled in the past. I also suspect that it has been very lightly cleaned as there a few minor marks present and due to the dullness of the fields - perhaps it was even dipped at some point. As to grade, 63 and maybe 64 because of the above.
Now, tilt the coin a few degrees and you have this coin (which happens to be my avatar): Now does this second set of photos change your opinion of the coin and/or your grade? The lesson being -- be very careful assessing proof coins from one set of photographs. BTW, PCGS graded the coin PR 66, and CAC agreed....Mike
Yes it does, the second set of photos makes me say PR66. Originally I said PR65, but as you can see, the scratch I see on the reverse, the rather big one, must be on the slab, not the coin itself, so maybe with that info in mind I would have graded this correctly It is so awesome, just a tilt of the coin, and BAM, it tones! lol I agree, PR66
I would grade this coin a PR 64 there's a nick right above the eye or is it the plastic. going on the first pics that is.Will the real liberty lady please stand up/ What;s my line remember that program ,the old guys of the forum. JC
wow! What a beauty Mike! :hail::hail:Even though the coin as a whole is not cameo, the reverse kind of looks cameo to me.
