opinions please lets grade this baby after we are all done i will reveal the grade i think this is more fun than to go aead and post a ridiculous coin wiht a cac label and grade so let me know and in case you are wondering this is also my latest purchase my gold coin set is nearly complete but i mentioned it already
my popularity is going down only 5 people saw the coin i posted and this one only got 2 responses maybe people dont like high end coins you think?
Be patient. It takes time for some people's eyes to readjust after being exposed to a very bright light source - like your PQ coin.
spock: Please forward it to me for peoper grading. I will attach a sticker: TH'er (short for threasure Hunter) as my approval of the grade. I will return it as soon as conditions warrant, and I no longer wish to view it.
This is a very nice looking coin. The photo lighting makes Gold Coins hard to grade although your photo is it still is nicer than I can do. Never the less here goes. I think this coin looks dipped, due to the lack of luster (this may be the photo). There looks to be wear on the Obverse on the Check Bones, there looks to be wear on the Reverse on the wing feathers near the Talons. My opinion ( and you know what they say about opinions ) This pic makes it looks like a AU55 or AU58 Thanks for allow us the time to see such a nice looking coin.
Spider, If you every want to get rid of any coins that look like this at VF pricing, please look me up.
VF is a little too low, don't you think Spider? I think an MS-64 at the very least becuase it has some dirt. But that shouldn't harm the grade as much, that is why I gave it an MS-66
WOW - for gold those surfaces look so clean. I am not any good at grading gold - but I am going to go with MS66, since I did find a couple of tick marks and I saw the dirt. What a nice looking coin. And Spock - I don't hate you, but you can adopt me for the half the year and eduard can have me for the other half. Sounds like a plan to me.
