    What makes you say this? To me it looks like heavy die polish lines, not a harsh cleaning.

    Looks atleast 64 with a very good chance of being FB. If it goes 65 or above its well worth slabbing.

    I don't think it has been cleaned; those appear to be die polish lines. I think it's pretty and if it goes FB it would definitely be worth submitting.

    I am sure it's die polish

  • clarkbar04clarkbar04 Posts: 4,978 ✭✭✭✭✭

    65fb and yes.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    Looks 66FB from those pics.
    Hard to tell though.
    Sellers will tilt the coin to hide marks.

    I agree with die polish lines. Probably 64 maybe 65 and maybe FB...hard to tell from pic.

    Pictures are a bit hard to judge but could easily be MS 65 FB and that's a very hard date in a grade that high. I submit that 100 out of 100 times "if" in hand it's not been dipped.

    The lines are die polish.

    Nice score!! I'd send her in for sure. I'd say 65FB all day long with a shot at 66 if the luster is booming in hand the way I read it in the photos.

    Looks very good, though cheek might have some chatter, might not. But looks really good and 65-66 FB

  • COINS MAKE CENTSCOINS MAKE CENTS Posts: 1,861 ✭✭✭✭✭

    65 fb all day I think

    I think there is enough separation to get the FB, coin looks fresh and nice 65 a good shot

  • gripgrip Posts: 9,962 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Looks like a nice 65 FB to me.

    65/66FB except possibly for the spot in the upper right rev field. Depends if that's just some toning or has some "depth" to it. Seller didn't submit this because....?

    Bodybagged for reverse wheel mark, does this seem correct to you guys?

  • mannie graymannie gray Posts: 7,259 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I don't see a wheel mark from the picture, maybe it runs through right leg of "M" ? But that just looks like a small hit/luster graze from the photo.
    Can't really tell from the picture.
    That's a tough break. :/

  • gripgrip Posts: 9,962 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Bad break. I would crack and resubmit if you don't see it
    in hand.

    What's going on in the upper part of the "N" in "UNITED"? Looks like some form of metal blob,die chip/die break.
