<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 2154267, member: 73165&quot;]I&#039;m almost hesitant to post, as I don&#039;t even really trust myself to say whether this coin is real or not.&nbsp; Not that I think it&#039;s fake, it&#039;s just that I haven&#039;t devoted the amount of study it would take to tell if it&#039;s real or not.&nbsp; Here are my impressions of the coin:</p><p><br /></p><ul> <li>I see things that &quot;could&quot; be casting bubbles (for instance, check out the E in TRADE), but it&#039;s impossible for me to say yes or no from the pictures.</li> <li>The detail looks razor sharp.&nbsp; In fact, that actually bothers me a little -- it looks <i>too</i> sharp to me.</li> <li>Are those hairlines?&nbsp; Die polish marks?&nbsp; Something else?&nbsp; Does it cartwheel properly or is it highly reflective?</li> </ul><p>That said, if it&#039;s real, the detail certainly puts it in the high AU category, if not MS.&nbsp; If it&#039;s die polish I&#039;m looking at, then I&#039;d say MS65 and probably PL, based solely on the quantity of die polish in the fields.&nbsp; If it&#039;s hairlines, probably UNC details, cleaned.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m so confused. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
