    All I can say is, that if I submitted this coin to PCGS, they would send it back in a gennie holder for questionable color. JMHO Mel

    I will guess possibly cleaned.

    I agree with Pontiac - looks very nice to me, common woodgrain from lack of proper mix in the planchet alloys. Usual great strike for 1914's and I see no rub at all, so my guess is it would grade probably MS63/64 BN - nice luster but not enough red for RB designation.

    That is a spectacular coin for all the reasons Charmy said. Superb . . .and if I submitted it . . . MS64.

    Cool piece !!!!!!!!!!!

    you're not doing yourself any favors by having it sit on top of another coin that is reflecting way too much light back into the lens.
