<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collect89, post: 2855061, member: 15445&quot;]Here is an 1833 Central American Republic 2 real that is XF45 in NGC&#039;s opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>As usual, my photos can’t do justice to the coin. The Tegucigalpa mint was pretty crude in 1833.&nbsp; I believe that everything you see in the coin photo is courtesy of the Tegucigalpa mint. At first the coin looked scraped &amp; looked like it had a damaged rim. After more careful inspection, I believe that these are all original planchet &amp; strike characteristics.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]678491[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]678490[/ATTACH]This NGC XF45 grade might be open to some debate but you really need to have the coin in-hand to appreciate that it is “as made” back in 1833. Therefore, I think it is &quot;as made&quot; and &quot;UNC&quot;. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
