<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HawkeEye, post: 3726590, member: 86305&quot;]I don&#039;t believe so.&nbsp; Lee is in the foreground, Jackson in the background and his leg is not visible.&nbsp; Take a look at this page <a href="http://www.stonemountainhalf.com/gradingelements.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.stonemountainhalf.com/gradingelements.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.stonemountainhalf.com/gradingelements.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Although Jackson&#039;s face seems to take a flattened appearance very early and also from bag damage, the difference in Lee&#039;s leg and glove are tough.&nbsp; The area on Lee&#039;s left leg can appear flattened from an incomplete strike where there isn&#039;t much detail, or wear.&nbsp; Since Borglum designed the coin to look like the mountain carving all the detail is softened.</p><p><br /></p><p>This also happens with Lee&#039;s sword hilt where it joins the leg.&nbsp; Other points of grading trouble are the bridle where it crosses the holster, and the detail of the breastplate on Traveler, which is rarely sharp.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
