FTW Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I was wondering what grade this 1895 s coin would receive? It looks pretty beat up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWB Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) Scarce date but too badly worn to be worth much of a premium. Agree with "Fair" as a grade. Here's a Fair-2 that brought $129 about 7 years ago; ebay offers show more like $25. Edited July 24, 2022 by RWB FTW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I would agree with a fair grade for this coin, very desirable date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandon Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 It might grade About Good (AG 3). It's clearly less worn than the one that NGC graded Fair 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBrad Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Heck, put in your pocket for 6 months to a year, check on it regularly so as not to lose the date, and it may reach PO-1. There is a market for the lowest grade and they bring a better premium. Oh my, I just chimed in from awhile away from the forum.... am I sounding like "Slick"? 🥴 I surely hope not.

Nope, you'd doing fine. "Slick" has decamped to PCGS where there are more people to ridicule his posts.
