[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2424401, member: 56859"]I wondered about the lack of monogram behind her head but I think it is there (ligate AV). There is a die break (or casting flaw?) obscuring part of it. I still think there is a good chance that it is authentic. Perhaps it was exposed to high heat at some point in its past. If an experienced local dealer cannot make the call with high confidence, perhaps it's a good candidate for [URL='http://www.davidrsear.com/certification.html']sending to David Sear for authentication[/URL]. That's not cheap and it would cut into the OP's profits significantly since the coin isn't a high-dollar specimen. [USER=78794]@Burntwynn5[/USER] , please let us know if you are able to get an in-hand opinion. I'm curious as to the verdict :)[/QUOTE]
