<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1311338, member: 26302"]Fair enough, but it is hard to be determinative. OP, I would take the half to another dealer and ask about these things. Either that or a collector who specializes in these. Photos can only take you so far, and until they have virtual 3d models of coins accessible on the web its impossible to know from a flat photo if these thigns are problems or not. Like I said, I have seen coins like yours where it was the toning that made it look like there is a problem when there is not one. A bad photo can make any coin look bad, just like a good photo can make a bad coin look good.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
