The cited problems don’t amount to much as long as the grade is in the MS-62-3 range. If gets in a holder with a high grade, they are a deal...
Probably MS-64. The 1908 $2.50 Indian is graded inconsistently because of the weakness of the Eagle’s feathers on the reverse. You can pick up...
It’s a solid MS-64+ with a serious shot at MS-65.
It's tough to say because to me, eye appeal is everything. I don't care for coins that marked up with ugly bag marks. An AU-58 should not have...
