[QUOTE="Publius2, post: 3923633, member: 105571"][LEFT][SIZE=16px][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=rgb(20, 20, 20)]With a ER-40/45 technical grade, a small rim ding, a couple of small scratches, and an old cleaning this looks like a --- wait for it --- an 1825 bust half! The TPGs will probably not body bag this one and they probably shouldn't. The scratches will have to be "in the eye of the beholder" as far as desirability is concerned when the coin is in hand for the individual collector. If you want it in plastic, send it in. It doesn't preclude your options even if it's detailed, you would just be out a few bucks. BTW, I think it's a nice coin.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT][/QUOTE]
