Just won this one .
Not my photos but looks like A Nice original coin to me.
Anyone care to guess the grade against the old ANACS Soapbox grading?
I do not have it in hand yet so I am just have these pics to go off of.

Remaining luster puts me in the XF45 camp.

Looks nice.

 

Xf but the image makes me think cleaned.

 

straight graded . I think the lighting maybe making it look bright

 

Have you vamed it?

 

not yet but one of the reasons I liked it is the clashing and the fact its not a Vam 3

 

45 sounds about right

 

looks like Vam 8

 

I think the terrible photos are making it look worse than it is. AU50
@COOPER12 Take some better well-lit photos of the coin when you get it.
Before you post the grade.

 

Toning looks good, perhaps lightly cleaned or not? I like the coin. AU? Thanks for sharing.

 

Nice coin. Looks like a VAM 8 and if the pictures were better it might be an AU 50. Was just comparing VamWorld.

 

Yeah think it’s vam 8 . I’ll try for better photos when it arrives . Thanks

 

50

 

I detest trying to grade items using poor photographs, and while the sellers photos may be good enough to sell the coin, they are far from being good enough to grade it. Just my opinion.
When you get it in-hand, I hope it meets your expectations.

 

I agree . That’s why I only take chances when they have return privy . I have found some sweet coins though from bad pics and I am thinking this may be another . If something looks off or something that can not be seen I’ll send it back.I asked seller if there was any scratches or anything that could not be seen in the pics and they said no .

 

I'm thinking 45. Might be a 50 in-hand. The photos are a bit subdued. Still a very nice find.

 

Extra fine

 

I am going with EF40, maybe even a VF35.

 

45 or so. Curious how it would dip out.

 

ouch haha. Strike is not great but way to much detail for VF.
