EF45! CAC!

 

53

 

AU53, and O-116, I think. Very Pretty!

 

+1 AU53

 

pretty color, a + for the color

AU-53

 

55

 

I agree with @ToughCOINS. Very nice. I still see some flow lines. IMO, 55 at least. Maybe 58.

 

I agree with the AU-53 sentiment

On LDS capped bust halves, the flow lines were sometimes easily visible down to VF grades.

 

AU-50. Pretty piece.

 

A joy to hold...AU53/55

 

The strike on this one, especially the reverse, is kinda wonky. That's making it hard to grade. I like it at 45, but I could see it going AU-50.

What's with the weird cloudy splotchy areas in the obverse fields behind her head? The rest of the coin looks to be quite attractive, but I'm trying to figure out what's going on there.

 

Dunno... To me, it looks like the sort of circulation wear that usually gets an XF40, maybe 45, from the major TPG’s. But if it did, it would merit a Green Bean from CAC, IMHO.

 

AU53 maybe 55 - a very nice coin, but not a 58 IMO; O-116 seems to be a match

 

I'm going to say 45 for the heck of it, my usual disclaimer that luster is very hard to judge on static photos. Great looking coin!

 

Touchy reverse, but still more of a strike issue. au 55

 

I'm sure that area got a bit of extra human intervention when the coin was cleaned.

 

I thought CAC didn't sticker cleaned coins. I thought that was half the point.

 

This was one of those coins that I really wanted. It has the look I'm after.

Old sins get forgiven.
