1917 Type 1 SLQ - guess the grade

[Mark T]

Guess the grade on this SLQ . As always comments welcome .

 

Some notes:

 

Obverse – there is a slight graze on the breast not visable from this photo otherwise no other grade defining marks

Reverse – there is a small nick between the Eagles feathers below the Unum – pretty easy to see from the photo.

 

The coin has good luster and lots of eye appeal. As with the majority of 1917 Type 1 SLQ’s the strike is strong .

Very Nice!! MS65

Love the look of it. Without rotating it though, it would be tough to tell if there is slight rub. If there isn't, I would say 63FH.

I'll guess MS 64 or 5 FH. Very attractive !

Great eye appeal to me. The shield on the shield not fully struck but still a very attractive coin. MS65FH

[physics-fan3.14]

TJ, how much more fully struck can you ask for? That shield is very well struck - and the coin is beautiful. I'll call it 65 FH.

Very appealing toning. MS64FH.

NGC Gave this one a MS 65 FH .

 

Next guess – was this coin CAC certified ??

64FH, I would CAC that in a second, nice sharp strike!

[relicsncoins]

Wow, I missed that. It must have a bit more luster than indicated in the photos.

I missed this one before. Sweet coin!

[L1ncolnF4n]

I was close with 64FH CAC

[TJ'S Coins]

For attraction and appeal, this is a PQ coin.
