Since it seems to be bust half post night...my new 1832.

While the pictures doesnt show the luster, it is full and hidden under the original toning. A very attractive and well struck coin, which occasionally will call to be depsite the fact it doesnt have monster color. So, what we have learned here is that I am not a 'color ho' after all!

Feel free to speculate on grade.

CnLt,

No wear to speak of, but enough cabinet friction to call it a 58. Nice picture, what camera do you use?

Thanks Nysoto, I grade it a 58 as well...Uncirculated but not Mint State. I am going to send it in however...I suspect it will be a 62.

I use a Nikon Coolpix 5400.

The strike on that coin looks absolutely hammered! The banner and legend look like the stand a full eigth of an inch up from the fields. The dentils look like friggin' piano keys

I do believe this is the coin that could easily be either AU58 or MS63 on any given day. Have you attributed her yet?

I'd agree too much friction to call it MS. Especially the friction on the cheek.

Edit to add, I'm not saying the services won't grade it MS, I just wouldn't.
