1805 DBH......opinions wanted

Asume this is a problem free coin,at least acceptable enough to slab at Pcgs.By the detail that can be seen,what would it grade.Seller has it as Xf.

Definitely an EF, IMO

Nice looking coin and apparently unmessed with

gecko109

EF is accurate for the details.

Very close, or at XF40. PCGS may want more definition on the rims for XF. The 1805 O.112 is usually well struck. They could grade it VF35, as the did my 1802:

You got cheated my friend, that one is worthy of resubmittal.

Here is the exact same reverse die that was also used on 1803 O103 and O104, this is PCGS XF40 O104, crossed from NGC XF40, which I think barely made the grade, note the reverse dentilation compared to the subject coin:



edit - Habaraca - yes, it will be in an PCGS XF40 holder when its time to sell I bought it in the VF35 holder

Nice VF coin. It won't be XF when it is time to sell.

VF-35 to XF-40.

VF20 to35 I don't see it as a XF at all too many flat wear spots..

It looks like a VF smothered with PVC.

The color looks odd to me but I don't usually collect stuff that old so I'm not an expert.
