<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gallienus, post: 3214991, member: 42034&quot;]Here&#039;s one of mine.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think I paid much more than the current Ebay price for the NGC-53 graded specimen in the OP (I recall about 2x the price).&nbsp; Unfortunately mine doesn&#039;t have the &quot;toning effect&quot; so it won&#039;t get that pricing uplift.&nbsp; The &quot;white sparkels&quot; are actually not scratches but are just sparkels in reflection when I took the photo.&nbsp; I don&#039;t like the NGC grade for the 1842-W as it does appear to have a bit too much wear and scratches for a 53.&nbsp; Is 1842 Lille mint a rare date? Mine is a common 1847.<img src="https://coinsandhistory.com/pix_shared/pix_cointalk/Fr_5F_1847_LPhilip_both.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
