<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 3011478, member: 10461&quot;]The 10-pfennig certainly looks like an MS candidate to me, and I&#039;d venture a guess of MS64, though I&#039;d ideally have wanted to see somewhat larger pictures so I could zoom in on the crown and eagle&#039;s brow and shield details.&nbsp; I&#039;d say it&#039;s got a pretty decent chance of MS at an American TPG, though.&nbsp; It looks as though there might also be some subtle &quot;cartwheel&quot; luster we&#039;re not able to see in the photos, maybe.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Wurzburg is quite tough for me to assess, since it&#039;s so difficult to determine how much flatness is due to the strike and how much, if any to circulation.&nbsp; I do think it has some light circulation, but wouldn&#039;t want to have to put any definitive grade on it.&nbsp; Wild stab in the dark?&nbsp; I&#039;ll say XF- to AU details.&nbsp; The color is indicative of some cleaning, as I see it.&nbsp; I do not foresee an American TPG straight-grading this coin without mentioning some kind of cleaning or surface issues, though they might give it a decent &quot;details&quot; grade.&nbsp; (Or not.&nbsp; Who knows?&nbsp; Certainly not me.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
