    Bruce, I think you should cut yours down to size, so that they match (much) better.😉

    Man I was pulling for you! I was hoping you would be posting this today. Bruce that’s next level off the charts. That coin is a freak of nature and a lottery pick earring

    CONGRATS!

    Splendid example!

    It's so refreshing to see such an advanced collector with such discerning taste buy such a rare early coin. So, examining the trueview closely, is that apparently light graffiti in the fields?

    @specialist said:
    THERE IS NO graffiti on the coin. That was an unwarranted and inaccurate comment.

    Bruce/Laura, truly asking to learn as it's WAY outside my area of specialty: Would you then consider all of the marks on the higher points and rims (of both sides) to be adjustment marks?

    Unquestionably a beautiful coin in an amazing state of preservation. Congratulations Bruce.

    Personally, I don't see any problems here but, because of what others have said, this coin is the reason that I'm glad CAC is around.

    Super gorgeous coin! We all love it! Not knocking such a high grade historical coin at all, just trying to learn:

    Are we saying we don't see the marks at all? Or we do see them but do not believe them to be intentionally placed?

    Because if they were "random", from what do we think?

    I'm not asking about the classic adjustment marks on the devices, but about the wispy ones in the fields

    This might be a coin which may even be attributed to 1st mint director David Rittenhouse, if a D and an R can be detected, imagine the value such a provenance would add!

    A very historic item, congratulations!

    Held the coin twice or three times, no graffiti.

    Pretty AMAZING coin. @tradedollarnut

  • WalkerfanWalkerfan Posts: 9,352 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Agree. I studied that Trueview image for a long time. I enlarged it all the way. No way that's graffiti. That's a heck of a coin!

    You might be right. .....

    Thanks for the added photo. I couldn't tell what was being questioned looking at the TrueView. From what is being posted by those who have seen the coin in hand, apparently the markings, whatever they are, in the 11-O-clock area are insignificant when viewed in person.
