WOW, never seen anything quite like it. I don't know, how about MS-62???

Ben

 

I can't see any wear on the obverse..........and only a tiny bit on the reverse. Probably AU-58.

 

Budgood,that's a very nice coin you've got there.

Aidan.

 

You forget to mention who graded it.

So, I'm going to guess either SGS PR70 or PCGS/NGC/ANACS/ICG in the high AU/low MS range. :goofer:

 

Is SGS just completly silly ?

 

Bud,
I'd pin that at an gorgeous ms-64+ I'd be thinking easy 5 without the spot on the reverse, and I certainly wouldn't say it would be incorectly graded at a 65.

 

​

 

What...can you send me a picture of a coin in AG in a XF slab or something ?

 

Wow! Very nice. I don't know how to grade forein coins so I will go 64/65. Nice coin!

Phoenix

 

It was graded by NGC-

 

WOW--what a coin! I would like to find one of these someday in about the same grade----I think it also grades around the MS64/5---IIRC this coin isn't known for a strong strike...but this one has a NICE strike!!!

Speedy

 

I'm sorry, my head was in the wrong place at the time. I had my mind on other matters. Sorry. Now I'm embarassed lol. Where is that foot icon?

Phoenix

 

I wouldn't be embarrassed. The coin does not bear any indication of being united states coinage, it was only minted for one year, and the guy who made it was foreign, and has an extremely foreign name. I suspect that if I were not aware of these, I too perhaps would have mistaken it as foreign.

 

Thanks. I am not to well knowleded on early tokens, I am basically a novice to the entire hobby. Live and learn I guess. Thanks for the info satootoko!

Phoenix

 

I would say that NGC gave it an MS65 minimum, but I am going to go with MS66. Its hard to guess their exonumia grades, some are OK, but quite a few of them are so high I think they looked at some token other than the one that was in the slab.

Very Nce BTW!!! One of the nicest that I have seen!

 

Zaneman , CWtoken- , You were on the money with MS 65 ! Good eye - Heres the slab.

Thanks for the replies -

 

All I can say, is I am very jealous. : )

 

Does anyone have any information about the Feuchtwanger 3c. pattern coin?
