Guess the grade 1854 $3 Gold - it's a 55

relayer

I got an email from Teletrade saying I won a lot. I forgot I bid on it and was surprised to win (and scared to look because I usually bid on $1000+ coins there because I don't like paying the extra BP on lesser coins)

I guess I needed it or else I wouldn't have bid on it.

What do you think PCGS graded this coin?

Sequitur

Definite wear on curls of hair, crown feathers and the reverse, esp. around the date (but would like a better pic). Thus AU.

Placid

45-50

RYK

AU 53. Weak date and weak hair in the curls are common. There is definitely some wear in the forehead. The reverse is nicer than the obverse.

More than a 50, but not a 58 - it's a AU55.

Everyone was so close, but nobody wins the coin today.

Does teletrade currently use a scanner or a camera?

It looks like a camera shot to me - the holder is out of focus
