    No problems. 40 or 45.

    Likely slab, possible light cleaning.

    Wow. I finally bought a coin that no one hates. I usually buy, then cringe while waiting for your reviews. Paid $550. If it slabs XF45 I did good. If its XF40 I broke even.

    Looks like a nice 40/45.

    and if it is cleaned, sell it on ebay and hope you'll get the price for XF45.

    Nice coin!

    on the obverse,
    why is it so dark close to the devices on the Right side?

    and on the rev
    what is going on below the eagles wing on the viewers left?

    You have definitely improved the quality of your coin purchases. And stop cringing when you post coins here - most of the people are giving objective, educated opinions, albeit they sound harsh at times....Ok, some of them are harsh....and I still cringe occasionally myself when I post coins image

    No I appreciate it. Thats how I learn to get better coins. I just cringe because I am worried that I might have screwed up. But, I appreciate very much what you all have told me and it has helped me a ton. Thats why I post these pics, I want to know as much as I can.

    It has those halos around the stars that might indicate an old cleaning. However, unless there are a bunch of hairlines under the patina, I'd say you did really well. I like the way it looks.
  • barbershopperbarbershopper Posts: 1,201
    A solid 45 minus whatever PCGS would knock off for the nicks and dings on the Obv.
    Great coin though.

    looks pretty good

    can't tell luster from scan

    older coins like that have tendency to being cleaned and counterfeited


    unless I had alot of experience, I would be VERY reluctant to buy a $400 coin raw or in any slab other than top-tier grading companies

    because I have been burned on my similar purchases in the past

    We all like helping members here,just hate to see someone get burned as I have in the past.
    It's all good.

    Looks a solid VF35 to XF40. I see this because it has many dings and no doubt in my mind it hasnt been cleaned. A light cleaning is very evident on the OBV between the bands of the liberty shield and stars. The REV most evident in the retoning that is occuring in various areas. Overall I think a good find at the right price.

    I would guess possibly cleaned.

    I suspect the coin's been cleaned (like 99%+ of the seated dollars I see), but the big three TPGS would deem it market acceptable. I'd estimate the grade at VF 35 or XF 40.

    Pretty close to XF 40 I would say. Here's a recent purchase from a board member which is in a PCGS 40 slab that is very similar:

    I love that 1870. Would be a perfect match for my 7070. Is it for sale?
