Sounds believable. I think there's a lot more luster than what those photos are showing.

Bad scan of a decent coin. I trust 58 plastic.

It has to be the picture.


Otherwise: ugh

As mentioned, I have never had a problem with
AU 58 graded coins - it has to be the scan.

I don't see anything that would make me think it's not a nice 58 coin.

I've had 58s that had this look when I was building my type set. That said, I think this seller is leaving a fair chunk of change on the table by not having better and larger images of this coin.

I agree with the poster. Not sure how scans affect the look of a coin but the reverse looks very worn to me. The banner, the eagle's neck and wing feathers look like a lot of wear.

Fine details are often lost with a crappy low-resolution scan.

So do I, for the most part, but I have handled a few AU58 PCGS dogs this year that had no business having that grade due to lack of luster.

You heard the line, "Buy the coin, not the plastic." Well, this is a case of "Buy the coin, not the photo."
