<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stldanceartist, post: 8113835, member: 13307&quot;]All great responses so far.&nbsp; The correct grade has been guessed, but I&#039;ll give it until tomorrow in case anyone else would like to throw their hat in the ring.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having the coin in hand, the obverse is definitely NOT PL; the reverse, probably yes.&nbsp; The toning, like [USER=9270]@kanga[/USER] said, is not what I&#039;d consider &quot;plus&quot; toning - but it is definitely interesting in its own way (and not &quot;negative&quot; toning.)&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The most difficult part of grading coins comes when I compare the coin I have in hand to images of already slabbed coins - I see some coins at a grade above this one that mine compares favorably to, but I also see some that are much, much nicer.&nbsp; I also see some coins in the same grade as mine that are much, much uglier...but some that are similar.&nbsp; In the end, I think that means it would take a good day at the grading table for someone to bump it up a grade - and while possible, maybe not worth the risk.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
