Grading fun......seated dollar

[bigd5]

Nothing crazy here. What would you grade this coin?

[bigd5]

reverse

[PQSeated]

A little too much wear for an AU grade, IMO, so I would probably grade it at XF-45.

[EVillageProwler]

I am torn between EF40 and EF45. As is typical, the reverse is substantially better than the obverse.

 

The coin seems a bit chewy on the obv, so I'm more inclined to value it at EF40.

Yeah, I had a hard time with that too, EVP. Any seated dollars I've seen in person, their reverses always seemed to be better then the obverse, is that typically what you see on them also?

[BankNote1]

EF40. IMO

[TomB]

I hate to agree with everyone, but, it seems like the obverse has too much "stuff" on it to go higher than EF40 overall. Still, a nice coin.

It's so hard to tell from a scan or a photo,,,, but i would grade it EF-40.

I would grade that coin XF40.

[MikeKing]

XF 40

I'd say EF-45

[bigd5]

Well, that's why I purchased it. Thought it was a no brainer xf coin, with hints of choice circling over the coin. PCGS graded this coin vf/35.

I hope I don't hear "well, I can see that because of some of the obv. chatter blah, blah, blah that pcgs would deduct 5 points from the grade. I think the debate with this coin is more xf, or xf/45. I'll pick a different coin later for a bit more debate.

[bigd5]

Oh yeah, there is much less "chatter" visible on the coin than appears in the scan. The trivial marks almost seem magnified in the pic. Just thought I'd throw that in.

VF35 - I can see that. When I first glanced at the coin my immediate thought was VF.
