It's been a long time since I've picked up a Type coin. This is going into my 7070.
I'm very pleased for what it is.
Wanted a raw one that would straight grade. Even at this level, I didn't want a details coin.
Hopefully I hit the mark.
Due to ownership bias I'm grading it F12.

    Looks pretty good for what it is, I think it would straight grade, and it looks to be a solid Fine.
    The seated dollars and the classic head large cent were consistently the hardest coins to locate for my 7070 as well as those that I helped collectors build. Just not enough problem free, reasonably priced examples around.

    Found it at small show 1.5 hours away and saw it right out of the gate.
    I looked at it but didn't want my show experience to be over in 5 minutes.
    Fortunately it was still there 2 hours later, made an offer and took it home.

    I agree with Walkerguy, solid Fine. Great circulated look too.

    Great looking coin, so hard to find without rim hits or digs in the fields. Perfect for the album!

    Got your "W/motto" yet?

    I like it A LOT. That's the way a well circulated seated dollar should look. If only it could talk.

    that is a very solid coin. Perfect wear and above average color and surfaces.
    Many of these are cleaned or other wise conserved. Great coin and a real pleasure to see.
    This coin is a real collectors coin and tough to find as such. Fine 15 in anyone's holder.

    Nice F camp here also.

    Looks nice for your Dansco.
    I'd agree with a F12 problem free coin

  • ashelandasheland Posts: 23,765 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Very nice original coin, I agree with the Fine grade.

  • topstuftopstuf Posts: 14,803 ✭✭✭✭✭

    The color of Dansco pages sets coins like that off just right.

    I still havent found a nice F one of these for my 7070. It's been the bane of my type album existence.
