NGC GRADED IT MS64

 

 

[mikew148]

It's still kind of hard to tell but, I have a feeling the toning is going to be much nicer than the previous pictures indicated.

 

Looking forward to seeing your images.

You know, I feel the same.

My pics won't be any good for showing the colors, but I'll try to at least show the detail.

Thanks

It's impossible to estimate a meaningful grade. I will say that there are enough marks visible, especially on the cheek, to limit this coin to a grade of MS63 or lower. In the eye appeal category, it has potential, but I would want to see better pictures before further comment.

[Coindude]

Due to the cheek marks I believe it would be limited to 63 but the reverse is exquisite.

[BillJones]

It looks like there is a long, vertical scratch on the front of Ms. Liberty's face, which would limit the grade to MS-63 and perhaps to something lower. The toning on the reverse is "exquisite" only if there is lots of mint luster coming up off the piece as you swirl it under a strong light. If it is dull with little no luster, the coin is mediocre at best.

 

Since the piece is not marked as "Uncirculated" on the holder, the GSA viewed this piece as a circulated coin at the time that it was sold. Don't feel too badly about that. Toned pieces ended up in the "other dollars" bin when the GSA graded it.

Just got the coin. added obverse pic

I'm sticking by MS63. The reverse, however, could use an improved photo to determine whether it is in fact "star worthy." Also, is there a lot of luster under the toning?

lots of luster. i'm really bad with pictures (especially toned coins) but here:

My sentiments exactly.

I see some nice colors hiding in that darkness there. I bet this coin pops in hand and is well worthy of a Star.

Based on the images provided, I would not grade the coin a 63. The vertical obverse scratches on Liberty's cheek look too severe for such a grade.

[MorganMan]

If the marks on the cheek are just contact marks, with no depth to them, MS63 with maybe a * for the rev. If those marks are scratches and not just light contact marks, MS62

 

 

Nise die clash on the reverse too, though not uncommon....

What would you grade the coin? Would you call it MS62 or lower, or would you bag it/place it in details holder?

My best guess is MS62.

64! Congrats. I am surprised because of the cheeks it got that but still pretty coin none the less.
