<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2568605, member: 1892&quot;]The imagery is insufficient for any opinion on surface originality, something which must be factored into your thinking. The 1800 especially, though, showing crud clinging only to the insides of the A&#039;s and a couple other places, must be assumed to have been cleaned. This also makes determining authenticity difficult; if you buy based on these images, the quality of the seller must come in to play.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1799 is B-11, in a very late die state with heavy reverse cracking. The lines on the reverse from the second S to the rim, and from the eagle&#039;s right wing to the T in UNITED, must be assumed to be scratches. Grade is F12-ish.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1800 AMERICAI is B-19, the more common of the two AMERICAI types. About the same grade as the other (although the wear is kind of uneven); the rim dings detract. </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;d be tough to contemplate paying full retail (maybe $1000 for the 1799, and $1200 for the 1800) based on these images. Even if trusted authentic I&#039;d want them both for considerably less than that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
