<p>[QUOTE="susanlynn9, post: 24388, member: 1258"]In my opinion, this coin is in EF40 condition. Wear can be seen in the hair above the ear and scattered throughout the other hairlines. On the reverse, there is light wear apparent on the breast and leg feathers. With the breast feathers still defined, I feel comfortable with the EF40 designation. Does the coin have any luster left to it? It looks to me like it actually has an attractive light gold tone to it that didn't come out right in the pictures. I had a few coins that were like that and looked flat in the pictures, so don't be discouraged. Capturing luster in a picture is an art. I can't do it, but my husband is a pro. I do get the feeling that this actual coin is much more attractive than it appears in the pictures. I did notice that the obverse is slightly darker. Was this coin in a belt buckle or any type of jewelry?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
