<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 7294649, member: 105571&quot;]If you&#039;re interested, that is the C-6 die marriage, consisting of Obverse 5 and Reverse E.&nbsp; It is R-1, one of the more common die marriages with an estimated survival of 4,200 per Eckberg. </p><p><br /></p><p>This coin appears to be a late die state, with the stars points drawn to the rim, central obverse devices not fully struck up and on the reverse; no dentilation, weak devices, tops of letters weak and drawn to rim.&nbsp; There a couple of die cracks that show up in late die states of this marriage but I cannot tell if they are there in these photos.</p><p><br /></p><p>Accounting for the late die states, the coin is still showing mid AU sharpness.&nbsp; I would call it about EAC AU-53/55 sharpness but if I could see it in hand and it doesn&#039;t show any remaining luster my sharpness grade would drop to 45.&nbsp; Unfortunately, and it may just be the photos, the surfaces particularly on the obverse might be showing some kind of disruption, possibly just circulation chatter or something worse.&nbsp; I would hesitate to try to EAC net grade this coin based on these photos.&nbsp; That said, I&#039;m guessing it would probably slab at 58.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
