<p>[QUOTE="princeofwaldo, post: 1963487, member: 24091"]Well, I suppose we can put an end to this...,,, The dealer at the show I got it from had 7 of these Indians, a few 1926s and 1932s, along with a pair of 1914s and a 1914-D. This was the lowest graded of them all, an AU58, and looked superior to most of the MS62 coins, and vastly superior to the one MS61 coin he had. There was an MS63+ that was obviously superior, but even it had at least as many marks in the fields as this coin in 58. As noted by a few posts, it does have a trace of rub, though the reverse is as nice as most MS62 coins I've seen, or even a little nicer. And the best part? Sold for about $140 over melt which I thought was quite reasonable. I only wish I could pick-up a few more dates in similar condition for the same price. Seems like AU50 coins are quite common for many of the dates, the better grades of MS62 are common for just a few dates like 1926 and 1932. And anything decent in any of the other dates gets seriously expensive pretty quickly.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
