    I have never seen a 1948 Dollar with that much wear. Very expensive pocket piece if it was one.

    It does have a very even wear.
    I would never be able to keep a pocket piece that long without losing it.

    I had seen one before with the similar grade. Th very low grade 1948 dollar are actually "harder" to find than the ones at EF+.

    I think we need better controls here on the darkside, it seems we are letting in a metal detecting guy. Call security!!!


    If it's cheap enough I'll try for it.

    Yea, verily. I'd like to see the coin in hand to see if the wear looks natural or "induced." Artificial wear is a great way to cover up counterfeit tip-offs (e.g. pitted surfaces).
