    I see something there but it's not clear enough to tell.

    Yes, that is one. Pointed bust, and the "L" is just to the right, at the base, of the last feather in the headdress. The light in this photo helps highlight it.

    If you look in cherrypickers guide it says the 64-L has a pointed bust and the regular 64 is more rounded, anyone know what it would be worth in that condition?

    Not to rain on anyone's parade, but from the scans it looks like the coin could be counterfeit. Can't really tell from the scans, but it has some raised "pimple" marks on the surface. Possibly one of the "Bay Area Counterfeits"

    Just an opinion.

    Not to squelch your enthusiasm, mbbiker, as that is a '64-L and a nice deal at $26 for the detail - but it's not worth $275. Pitmarks, abraded surfaces and verdigris on the reverse make the price you paid seem more or less, to me, a fair one. It will certainly fill an album space though, nuthin' wrong with that.


    Edit: someday I'll learn to hit all the right keys.

    I was just thinking the same thing as njcrackcoin with that funky looking rim and the bubles on the obverse.

    Looks good to me, too.

    Send it in to ANACS to be sure if you want to.

    I think $26.00 was a good price, too.

    Where are the comments on splitting the difference ($26 vs $260) with the seller?

    Here is the same thing I posted on your last post about this coin:

    Its a candidate for being genuine, but I would say it is a cast copy due to the bumps and the dimples in the rim.

    I suggest you check the edge ("the third side of a coin") to see if there is a thin raised line of something similar (you may need to look under magnification)

    The raised lumps above the 6 and in a few other areas make it look like a cast counterfeit but the picture is to poor to tell for sure.

    #1 most likely case: It's a fake/copy
    #2 most likely case: It's genuine but cleaned/not original
    #3 most likely case: #1 and #2 above

    Sorry mbbiker - this is starting to sound like the "no santa claus in numismatics" theme. Believe me though, $26 is not as expensive of a lesson as some are. Tread carefully!

    The grainy and porous nature of the surface also leads me to believe that its countefeit.
    If it is not, it would surely be neted out by ANACS to VF30.

    It is a 64-L, but in the surface condition its in, if Genuine, not worth much more than you paid for it IMO

    wallstreetman, if you have ever heard of an Omega counterfeit, and then if you though about what wouldve happened if the designer didnt place on that "O"; you wouldnt be saying that.

    No way its AU 50. I grade it VF 30 with an approximate value of $130 or so, but I'm not sure what sort of effect the pitting might have(obviously it would lower it a bit, but I dont know how much).

    A nice XF-45 is worth about $150, that coin is not XF if it is indeed real. It looks like a cast copy from that picture, but you need to study the rims. If it is real I would value it between $30 and $45.

    LOL!

    WSM - get a clue. The coin is an obvious cast copy. Either that or Miss Liberty is entering puberty and has a bad case of acne!

    Perhaps you should stick to what you know best - can you tell us what might that be? [it's obviously not numismatics!]
