The coin is raw, 1930-S. Thanks for the input! image

    Photo is a bit dark. It would appear to have a shot.

    Yeah, not my photo. I ended up not bidding on it, but would like to know what the peanut gallery thinks anyway.

    Better than a 50-50 chance, methinks.

    yes. it sure looks FB.

    I see a flat spot in the center of the middle bands that breaks the line.

    The bands Must be complete, free of gaps and be completely rounded to get the designation.

    I do not see it as FB and I don't thinK PCGS will either.

    Looks FB in the pics, but would have to make an in hand inspection to make a definite judgment.

    Need a better picture (as stated above) - hard to say as it is...close.... but may be something either hidden or - best case - clear up the questionable area. Cheers, RickO

    It appears FB from what can be seen in the pics, but my question is will it go 64 or higher? I say this because of what appear to be several bagmarks in the field to the right of the fasces. Again, based on what I can see only. How is the obverse?
