GDJ I am not sure if that is necessarily true on some types of coins, but may be different for gold. I don't know. Even so, I've seen many graded...
XF-45+ sounds about right, and it doesn't look outright cleaned/AT to me or anything. Might have been dipped at one point, though IMO. Many...
That quarter looks MUCH better now.
AU details, cleaned. Value on ebay $200, maybe slightly over. It's a somewhat better date coin, but you're not going to get $450 for it (no...
Neither have I about the XF, I think that's AU too.... As I said on the other forum Johnny, great coin!
VF-35/XF-40 or so details Looks polished or whizzed from pics : (

I couldn't use Acetone on the dog, so I just had to do good ol' soap and water. It was pretty hard to get decent pics of the SLQ, because...

:d

Its a really really nice coin though, and definitely not AU lol
I see no reason why it wouldn't be 66, but some have a point that the toning might cover up a bit more than would be ordinarily seen.
I'd love something like an 1872-S quarter in well circulated condition.
According to my local dealer, both rules apply. Meaning that the lowest side generally takes the grade, but because obverses carry more weight, a...
