FR 2 ....just misses the P 01
If it straight grades, I think it should be P01, since it the country, denomination, and Alabama are completely worn off.
However, the pattern of wear is a little suspicious. In particular, the central aspects of the coin - Washington's hair, and the name Helen Keller just seem too bold.
Is there a designation "AW" - artificial wear?
If it grades like my Albany FR02

That is not normal wear... so it may be 'details' or 'damaged'... a grade would likely be 02....Cheers, RickO
Not normal wear. My grading service would give it grade either pizz poor or excellent spacer.
“I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong. I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.” Albert Einstein- quoted in Saturday Evening Post interview (1929)
“Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters.” For Einstein, honesty was fundamental. Attention to truth in small things reflected a person’s integrity on a larger scale.
Thanks for playing!
