ok its time to play withthe original master one more time. thats right you get to play with spock as usual this coin is also with a twist and please remember dont grade inflate it because of the owner ( this is for the old gang) ok you have to guess 3 grades here grade 1 - how the nitwits grade it there is a 1/10 chance they got it right grade 2 - you have to guess how GD would grade it ( remember he gets most of his indian coins wrong but we still love him) grade 3 - the real grade in your opinion of the coin lets play guess the grade
Ya' know, I've never graded and Indian coin in my life, but...nothing to loose... NGC's Grade - MS62, no wear, highly lustrous, marks hold it back, take that PCGS... Doug's Grade - G4, too much wear, it is everywhere, no luster, I think I've seen this exact coin in my change once. My (Serious) Grade - AU58, I think I see wear, but I could be mistaken. On the reverse, on the flower at 12 o'clock and some other areas on the obverse, although the pics could be deceiving.
come here grandpa tmoney is holding his breath till you give out the grades please see you can only answer 2 out of 3 questions since you cant have a different gd grade and my grade
sigh he came and went without grading it. tmoney go find me some 6th century coins he has even seen those in his change
You obviously haven't seen the thread about how old Doug really is LOL Just all fun n' games my friend.
Likewise, have never graded an Indian coin. For that matter, I have never graded a Doug, either. grade 1 - 66 grade 2 - 62 - 1 for iust being Indian -2 because spock1k owns it -1 for the insult = 58 grade 3 - 64
For nitwit it doesn't get any better than SGS so I'll say MS70!!! then Doug AU53 for the eyebrow and mustache wear on the obv and the breaks in luster on the rev here, here, and here (imagine a reposting of the pic with red circles and arrows on it) Then I'll call it a nice even MS63
I wanna play: (1) 63 for the nitwit grade (2) Overdipped harshly cleaned - can't you see the lack of luster and haze on the coin? (3) My grade 64 - since spock seems like high grade coins. And spock - I think you short changed doug some bodies. Probably more like 30000 - he is really old. PS - I also see that writing under the 1922.
Give him a break! Next you will have him as the snake banning Adam and Eve from the Eden forum. :devil:
