GTG: 1893 Isabella 25¢ - You vs NGC

I hope you understand that the specific reason why I graded this coin AU58 was that the reverse fields bear hairlines that have to be from circulation. It had nothing to do with the weak details from the strike.

And myself the same reason as Lehigh, I saw the the same lines. But I am glad you are happy with the results, Congratulations.

 

Here's a similar PCGS MS-63. As you can see, the toning breaks make it look like a 58, but I agree with PCGS on their grade. This would be an AU by EAC standards.
