Looks EF40. Could be 45 if there is more luster than suggested by the images.

That's my guess also. Just for fun, I'll say older white Anacs holder.

EF-40- details,
EF-45+ eye appeal.

Just to show, how little I know, in case anyone's forgotten... I would have thought it was a high end AU 55 to 58.
Pretty coin! And if we're guessing TPG's - ICG.

lkeigwin

Very pretty, AJ. Square base 2. I'll guess XF40 and ANACS.

What's the giveaway prize, anyway?
Lance.

AnkurJ

No giveaway yet, but I will think of something.

AU50...

Here's a 50 for comparison. I like the look of Ankur's more. Very sweet.

XF45, nice toning IMHO, just a guess.
Some of the stars are more complete than others. Strike or wear?

kaz

I think 45, and very nice looking!

Put me down for XF45 also......40 details, but eye appeal gives it a nudge up.

lkenefic

I'd say XF40 all day! possibly 45...

seemyauction

<< <i>I thought there might be some conversation about my cleaned and retoned comment. I thought I learned that when there is dirt in and around the devices, and the fields are clean that the coin had to have been cleaned and then subsequently it had to have retoned. What say yall here, am I correct about these two examples? >>

That's a generalization that is often correct but not always, particularly with a circulated coin.

Don't you figure that a very, very high percentage of old coins have been cleaned at one time, if not many times?

I would have guessed XF40 for the OP coin.

BTW Lance, I really like the look of your 1827 .....nice strike!!

divecchia

XF40 is my guess...
