    It’s cool. If it straight grades, the low ball registry people will love it. If not, it would make a great pocket piece like my low relief 22S I have in my pocket right now

    So the more compelling question is... Is this one bad enough to grade a po1-

    and that I don't know

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

    That is one of the questions I have as well.

    My guess is no grade, looks like belt sander damage to me.

    Pretty hard to lose, but if you really want to feel good about this one, have @braddick opine.

    Well, you did fine (obviously) but I doubt it will straight-grade if the in-hand look is like the photo. Maybe it's just the lighting, but the coin seems to exhibit rather deep and parallel hairlines..... almost like it's been deliberately worn smooth. There's a weird demarcation between rough and smooth that extends vertically across the face, roughly in-line with Liberty's eye.

    I like it.

    PCGS will actually grade coins as "Artificially worn," which is pretty interesting.

    Still a good buy.

    Really just the lighting. I dont see those in hand. A few of those marks may be relatively new from being stored with other coins recently. It has a nice even toning in hand.

    Looks cool! Be careful though, ‘lowballing’ gets expensive. 😂

    I do not think it will grade PO1... probably a 2 or3... Maybe 4. Cheers, RickO
