I've been carrying this coin every day for about 3 months and using it for a golf ball marker. What would you guess the current grade?? How long before it becomes PO1?? image

    Three over par? image

    Pretty cool you can still read the date. What do your friends think about your ball marker? Ever lose it on the green?

    Currently it is FR-02.

    Did it start at MS-67+?

    Such a shame to have a hard live at the end of its life.

    My guess is AG 3, and it will be PO 01 after 32 more rounds. This is calculating getting on the greens in regulation and walking. Riding in a cart will not allow the coin to wear properly.

    Too much detail. FR02 obverse AG03 reverse. It is going to take some move wear to get lower.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    FR2. Far to much wear to merit an AG3.

    Steve:

    Thanks for the comp.

    I'm going for PO plus - stay tuned. The laser scan will be so "flat line", they'll call a CODE. image

    It's not better than Poor-1 IMO. I'm not sure I can tell if it has a mint mark or not. If you can't make that out, it's a grade zero because you can't attribute it to a mint for sure unless there is some other marker of which I'm not aware.
