[QUOTE="Leadfoot, post: 1335147, member: 2972"]Classic NGC AU 58, maybe 55. High point and field rub are the giveaways. Would probably grade lower at PCGS, as they tend to have quite a different view on coins in these grades. Word to the wise: Be careful with NGC AU coins. Numistrust probably called that indian mint state, but it appears anything but to NGC/PCGS standards -- altered surfaces or AU at best. Where's the luster? The double eagle looked low end AU. However, the wear pattern on the head and amount of luster look "odd" to me for that issue. Hmmm... IMO, of course. And now one for you... What do you think PCGS said about this coin? It's been there twice and came back the same way both times: [img]http://www.pbase.com/miker/image/102727529/original.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.pbase.com/miker/image/102727632/original.jpg[/img][/QUOTE]
