    Full Brown and Dunn XF40 with some surviving frost in the protected areas.
    Minor surface porosity noted around the high points.
    10% chance it's bounced back from a cleaning that only affected some of the surfaces 75 or more years.
    I can't grade from pictures. :s
    I like it B)

    That's a very nice high grade circulated coin. Very attractive!

    I wouldn't think too much longer on it. Coins like this seem to go fast

    perfect... all of these are terrific for a 7070 or whatever the album of choice may be

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    All the coins you have shown are excellent choices for a 7070 type album collection.

    Solid. XF40. Original.

    Nice solid gray EF, which I like even better paired with the other two you showed. If you're going for that kind of set, it should be worthwhile, for sure.

    I really like it, agree with the xf40 assessment; nice contrast with the devices and background. perfect for an album.
    Your Trade Dollar does not suck, either.

    I'll be the contrarian here. I would pass on the '57 quarter, based on the distraction of those old pin scratches on obverse. A '57 quarter in mid-circ. range is easy enough to locate without scratches.

    The first, and the subsequent coins, will make nice additions to a 7070 set. Good luck with future acquisitions. Cheers, RickO

    All 3 are exactly what mid 19th c. silver should look like. Nice set!
