<p>[QUOTE="howboutatrade, post: 2051322, member: 10387"]I am not the best grader ...however using a comparison. Here is a quick photo of a silver still in package...so completely uncirculated. Key to note for me is the hair on Washington's head. There are lines of hair from the temple area all the way down to the ear. In your photos (may be different in hand) it appears there is clearly wear in this area on items 2,3, and 4. You can see similar wear on the drum and its inside rim on the reverse. I am not seeing as the wear on item 1, however, the photo looks flat, like there is no luster left on the coin. Assuming this is a photo issue, and not a coin issue, I would grade it MS65 at most given the marks on both Obverse and Reverse...this is clearly a question of the photo as they may/may not appear as negative in hand. My view based on the photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]376701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]376702[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
