    Fair-2 details, corroded, net PO-1

    While there are no derogatory comments on the slab like "corroded", the coin is indeed graded P01
  • Why would you even bother?

    Actually, for something like this, it IS worth bothering. I'm guessing even in this condition, the coin is worth several hundred dollars.

    It's those PO-1 Kennedy's you see here that have ME scratching my head and asking "why bother?".
    Philately will get you nowhere....

    Really, an honest PO-01, not Details graded? Sweet coin!
  • That's a hellovan accomplishment!!!!! Most of them are net graded.

    Five years ago I turned down an NGC FR-2 that had PERFECT smooth brown surfaces, but no more detail than this at $400. As a dealer, I was a fool. You can judge this piece from there. image

    Sort of the opposite end of the spectrum from your 1793 1c PCGS MS64BN Vine & Bars Wreath Cent that I saw in Long Beach.

    Very cool.

    Yeah, kind of neat to put them side by side.

    Because this is the only grade that a lot of people can afford for this coin!

    Here's a PCGS PO01 Chain, FR02 Wreath, and PO01 Cap for comparison purposes:

    That PO-01 Cap is PQ.

    And it's an S-14. If I ever get a 1793 Liberty cap large cent, it'll be that variety. Bisecting die cracks are a big plus in my book.
