I'm asking $400, delivered. Sharp design elements and very well defined date. Details are consistent with 1921 SLQ's that have been slabbed in the VF35-XF40 range. Nice eye appeal with subtle pink/orange color under an incandescent light. There is a thin horizontal scratch on the reverse that could result in a details grade. The scratch appears to be modern and is only really noticeable at certain angles when the light catches it right. I have not tried to submit it for grading, but give it a 50/50 chance based on the scratch. XF Details slabbed 1921 SLQs have sold in the $480 range, so my price fairly accounts for this possibility. Some on this forum have suggested that the coin may have had an old cleaning based on photos. This is possible, but I'm not sure one way or another. For what it's worth, I showed the coin to a local dealer who said he did not think it looked cleaned based on his in-hand inspection. I've posted plenty of photos below so you can get a very good sense for the coin's in hand look. It really is quite attractive.
