My first True View from one of my PCGS submissions.
One of the slightly more common early dates, but still scarce at this grade level.
Back story later, GTG if you want.

    That's hard to judge from the picture. Send it to me with the grade covered and I'll guess! >:)

    I know the backstory and the grade, so I will just say that it is a lovely coin with an interesting history.

    Looks like sum I just submitted three months ago and still waiting. But I’ll go MS-62/3

    Looks 58, but probably went 61 or 62.

  • braddickbraddick Posts: 24,217 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I don't know the backstory yet I'd guess it was at one time an AU58 and is now an MS(63) grade?

    You can send me this one and that 20-d and I will send you a lifetime supply of dog treats and some money.
    I am resisting building another walker set but coins like this make it so damn hard.

    The grade, to me is AU64

    Wow... I was going to say 58 based on the initial images but your 2nd pics show quite a bit of luster and a flat strike... I'll go 63... and very beautiful! Congrats!!

    tough mint mark 1917-S date. Usually comes softly struck but Liberty ‘s head is especially weak.
    Looks like an AU-64 so I would net grade it a 63.

    The fields look very nice and pretty free of significant chatter so I agree that such coin is a good looking coin.

    Beautiful WLH and your pictures show great luster. Cheers, RickO

    64 shot 64+

    This series and early branch mint pieces especially are known for weak strikes.

    I don’t get it. The surfaces look fairly clean, and there is ample luster. The strike is acceptable at MS grades below gem. MS62 is a ridiculous grade. It also looks very strong for a choice uncirculated piece as well. What am I missing?

    The True Views also look strong for a 63. That’s what I meant by ‘choice uncirculated.’

    Good clean surfaces. Strike issue reminds me of the 41-s. For a 64 would it have to have a better strike?
