    Ray,

    Looks like a winner! Very nice type 1.

    Hopefully that little tick on the obverse rim is just that, a little tick.

    Minimum of a MS66FH in my opinion.

    Nice coin. 66FH from the image.

    Hummmm,I guess it will have to go out for grading.

    The coin is actually pretty much white, the goldish hue on the sides is because I mixed my lighting (I'm still working on my imaging) image

    Thanks again,
    Ray

    At 9:30?

    What you see is it, it's just on the edge of the rim.

    Thanks,

  • Easy 65FH, maybe 66FH. Great looking coin.
  • messydeskmessydesk Posts: 20,220 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I like it! 65FH

    MS65 FH...
  • MFHMFH Posts: 11,720 ✭✭✭✭

    Very impressive coin - I do detect slight rub on her breasts though.

    Another AU 64.

    The SLQ is one of the hardest to grade - especially from images.
    So...its either AU 58 or MS 64FH.

    I wish I rediscovered that in my SDB's.

    Maybe for good luck?

    Very nice! Without seeing it in hand, a minimum 65FH, shot at 66FH. Type I, P mints are known for good strikes, but this one's a cut above.

    I don't see any rub on the breast, in fact it appears that there may have been a cool breeze blowing across her chest just when this one was struck. image

  • I see no rub on this coin.............

    65FH.....66FH would not surprise me.............

    I'm was going to say AU58FH based on your pics. As it looks like Rub on the 3 sections of Ms. Liberty's hair, then on her cheek traveling down her neck across her chest towards the nipple. It's just scuffing along with her mind section and roll friction from her ankle working up to her thigh. The coin is Unc as there is no rub on her thigh or sheild, but the scuffing is noticable to the naked eye and wouldn't go any higher then MS61 IMHO. I like the reverse a hole bunch more! image

    Agreed, but I'd say at least a MS60 - more likely an MS62 but would not surprise me to see it make MS64.
  • sfs2002usasfs2002usa Posts: 894 ✭✭✭
    Definitely a Full Head. I'm optimistic and will say a 67!
  • BroadstruckBroadstruck Posts: 30,497 ✭✭✭✭✭
    As MFH mentions SLQ's are tough to grade from a digital image. The key trick is to safe the pic to your PC and play with "Brightness" in the Photo Edit section as you have a better chance of seeing the surface conditions as you darken and lighten the pics looking for tell tale signs.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Maybe Utahcoin would know the answer since I don't recall anyone here that goes by the name Idahocoin - but your comment raises an interesting question. Has a potato ever been featured on a U.S. (or for that matter Irish) coin?image
