What would you grade this at? I am thinking of sending into ANACS.

    difficult to grade from a scan
    some possible rim damage....
    possibly cleaned (very subdued luster from what i can tell=cleaned/dipped)
    maybe anacs would net it at about AU55? if that, depending on rim condition.
    good luck.

    AU55, was cleaned and/or dipped out long ago and now has some trace PVC, that may or may not be removeable.

    I'm with Cam... AU50, and it appears to have been cleaned (dull/no lustre). The reverse rim ding doesn't strike me as big enough to be a bodybag concern.
    When in doubt, don't.
  • Look at "in god we trust"

    It looks like dirt or toning inside the letters. Why isn't it all over.(because it was cleaned) If it was dipped properly then it should have cleaned inside too. My guess it that it was possibly AU before it was cleaned. Not a good cleaning either. Show it to a dealer before you waste money on grading.

    Details show AU, but it looks to me like it will get net graded down to XF for cleaning. I'm not sure if the rim bump is severe enough for them to bump it down for that.
  • details = AU50

    Cleaned, very noticeable by the dipped out look , no luster. Also to note rim bump 12 0'clock reverse.

    Net Graded XF40

    I would also agree with that.
