[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 153312, member: 705"]I'm not GDJMSP but I do agree with his grade of AU on the LIB and also see wear on the coin...... I have taken your photo and saved it and marked where I see wear....But let me also put it in words....look at the hair on Lady Liberty---see how on the higher points of the hair it is darker than the othe places...that darker look is wear---it also shows on the nose...top of the LIBERTY... Now I'll be the first to say that I don't know alot about grading--and grading gold is hard....but on this case I don't think there is any way it could grade higher. Also when you scan a coin in the scan it washes out the luster the coin might have....so when we see the "photo" the coin may not look like it does in hand----that is with luster---but with wear it will always be there. On this photo I didn't mark all of the dark spots in red---that way you can find them yourself..... This may not be what GDJMSP was talking about at all....and I could be all wrong myself ;) but this is JMHO Speedy[/QUOTE]
