<p>[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 621423, member: 307"]I am by far no expert on early coinage of the US Mint, but this coin has to be XF or better, my guess is high end AU. A lot of these coins have poor strike from being made on a screw press. Incomplete details are very common even on uncirculated coins. I don't see any traces of wear on Liberty's cheek, but it may have retoned over time. hard to tell from pics.</p><p><br /></p><p>I LOVE this coin! Nice find![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
