I was expecting a higher grade. What do you think? Regrade, or just send to CAC?

    Post the grade so us lazy people don't have to look it up.

    Edit: Now that I looked it up, it happened to be exactly the grade I expected. Why risk losing this beauty in the mail trying for a better grade or a sticker?

    I guess VF30, shot at 35. Nice coin. Fantastic date. :)

    Of course send it to CAC.

    nice quarter with a readable date. I like :)

    Nice coin!

  • CoinJunkieCoinJunkie Posts: 8,772 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Not my series, but the grade looks reasonable to me. How much more would it be worth as a 35?

    Cool overdate, in any case.

    Not my series either.
    Awesome coin.

    I see it's VF30 and like it there.
    I say leave it as is and let the next owner dream of the upgrade.
    Although I see the price guide increase for a 35 is negligible.

    30 + bean > 35 + no bean

    Correctly graded by current standards. Nice looking coin.

    A nice problem free VF.

    I agree with the 30 - if CAC thinks it is higher, there is always the golden sticker of fame.......

    That coin would suit me just fine.

  • DCWDCW Posts: 7,400 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I was going to say VF35. Nice looking coin with "honest wear."

    I would have guessed VF as well. Unless the coin is a 27-S, which is notoriously poorly struck, the outer shield line (red arrow) needs full definition from the gown to get to XF, and the inner line (blue) needs to be complete as well. This doesn't make it. That said, this is a very nice coin for the grade, and one I'd be happy to own.

  • Dave99BDave99B Posts: 8,554 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Lovely original VF. Just a good old great example.

    Back in the Photograde days a Fine was supposed to have an intact outer shield line. Now it's XF?

    Probably doesn't get penalized for striking weakness as opposed to wear.

    Looks VF35 to me, shot XF40. Yours have more details than the pictured one.

    Unless your planning on selling it, I'd keep it as is and maybe send it to CAC.

  • koynekwestkoynekwest Posts: 10,048 ✭✭✭✭✭

    And that could very well be striking weakness.

  • DontTellTheWifeDontTellTheWife Posts: 611 ✭✭✭

    Great looking coin regardless!! Nice strong date, i do agree it could have gone higher especially when you look at the amout of wear on, or not on, the knee and leg. No doubt SLQ's are tough grade as strike somewhat varaible. We all know if that was most raw dealers cetainly would have called more, many, much more!!

    Again, fantastic looking coin,amd color and date, congrats on owning her!

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That is a very nice old SLQ....I think the grade is appropriate....If you are concerned about selling it, then a green bean would enhance the value.....Cheers, RickO

    I'd send it to CAC just to see. Before I saw the posted grade I assumed VF35 myself. Can't hurt to try if you have an account with CAC. If not, there are plenty here who can help.

    Then that would remove the "Haven't submitted" option from a future sale.
    I don't like that.

    Perhaps I am in the minority ... but based on the TrueView, the coin looks cleaned but market acceptable. The coin should not CAC, but it may simply because it is a key coin. I agree with @topstuf that submitting to CAC removed the "haven't submitted" option which can be an enticement during a sale.

    Looks like it's been lightly dipped if that makes sense. It may be the pics but the surfaces don't look like they're entirely original. How important are original surfaces to CAC?

    I dunno, but there are tons of dipped silver dollars with beans out there.

    Very nice SLQ overdate but agree this one has had a bit more cleaning than the slab may suggest. I would be happy with the grade as is.
