A.) Lefty



B.) Righty



C.) Both



D.) Neither



E.) Damifino

They both are now in PCGS XF-45 holders. I bought righty from Vbowling299, and lefty came in a trade with Larry Briggs. image

    I like the right one. Not a fan of the left

    Left looks cleaned. What's your reason for submitting?

    Much remaining luster on the left but the right one is more eye appealing to me. I'd think they grade the same.

    Let me guess, is it the same coin photographed with different lighting conditions?

    No, two different coins obtained from different sources about three years apart. Notice the distinctly different mintmark placement of each.

    Guess I would say both.

    Those pictures don't flatter either one. The first/left coin looks like it might have some trace luster?

    'A' because it is XF. The other is not.

    Left coin has more chatter but less wear. I choose left.

    Send 'em both along with some others to justify the shipping & handling fees. I would send in a minimum of four.

    The coin on the left appears to be a higher grade, however based on the low resolution photo it also seems to have more contact marks.

    It would be easier to make a determination if we had higher resolution photos to evaluate.

    Seeing they both have similar wear and fall in the VF to XF grades, whichever you send in, minus fees, they would sell the same or might not be worth much more than the other. But an AU? If there's enough luster showing and there's not too much wear.

    Thanks to all for the feedback - I am submitting both, which does appear to be the consensus of the majority. I have a reasonable expectation for both to make a minimum of XF40. The images are not optimal, but I will state with confidence that the right hand coin has a better chance to make XF45. image

    the coin on the right, maybe because I think the other might be a fake.
  • johnny9434johnny9434 Posts: 29,147 ✭✭✭✭✭
    sent the both of them in.
  • guitarwesguitarwes Posts: 9,290 ✭✭✭
    I vote both. I think they'll be within 5 points of the same grade. The lefty appears to have a bit of luster and a pinch more detail but too many tics and may get netted a little on grade. The righty looks smoother and more eye appealing to me but just a smidge less detail than the lefty.

    Nice early NOLA seated stuff.

    Need larger / better resolution images. Lt. looks cleaned. Too bad someone appears to have ruined it. Rt. has too much wear for an XF 45 grade, but from what I can see, it may grade.

    image Sorry Al, no fakes !

    This is a sleeper date in Seated Half dollars. Most surviving examples are in VF or below, many of which are plagued by problems due to attempted "enhancement". Nice, crusty original XF and better examples are few and far between.
