<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 2233191, member: 1765"]Still can't tell if it will grade from the picture. You either have a 62PL, an AU58, or a no-grade thanks to hairlines I can see in the left obverse field. Since you are lighting the coin with a single, small light from 1:00, the hairlines might just be the only ones the light is making visible. The other thing that gives me pause is what looks like some residue on the lower reverse. I'd hit the coin with acetone to see if it comes off, although I'm not optimistic based on the earlier close-up picture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
