Just received this today. Seller had it listed as a proof with some really bad pictures. I didn't think it was a proof and I'm kind of on the fence, but it's still a nice coin. Let me know what you think.
I agree it's not a proof and I figured it was cleaned. I figured I'd take a gamble, but I think I lost. I'll probably return it.
Well originally I was at XF, I don't have at as AU because it has been circulated, there is plenty of circulation wear on the obverse. And just something I didn't like about it. The scratches. So I under graded it.
Yes but lighter than this. The current grading standards are too lenient. We need to go back to stricter guidelines, and this coin would not be higher than XF-45.
