66RB, although the strike is better on yours.

Less Red.

SethChandler · November 11, 2004 3:43PM

Gotcha! They are the same coin.

ANACONDA · November 11, 2004 4:04PM

sorry, we should have told you...we're on the phone with each other sharing techniques

Cladiator · November 11, 2004 4:16PM

This one was an easy spot that they are the same coin from the hit behind the lower curls in her hair. Nice coin though.

Same coin, look at the "phantom" 6 or whatever, above the '0' in the date......

mr1931S · November 11, 2004 9:11PM

Nice coin. RB is what it should be, in my opinion, taking all three images into account and considering that this piece is 200 years old.

ANACONDA · November 11, 2004 11:36PM

There's quite a bit of light coloration on the coin in the protected areas and one can even find some red holed up in the deepest recesses however in my opinion it is properly designated as brown. (I have the coin in my possession and Brandon captured my image and was tweaking it.)

Geeeez! It actually looks like it really is UNC.

sssssssSnake, I'd say the grade is . . .

MS63BN (EAC) . . . .

nice little sister, btw.

Baley · November 12, 2004 2:10AM

... and to throw a bone for those of us who cannot afford a Gem example of the coin...

Here's one in slightly lower grade..

raw, and less than $500

It appears to be an early die state. Clean surfaces. Would be nice if I could see the reverse, too. Image #1 IMO makes the coin appear more natural. If I saw a 200 year old copper look like image #2, I'd wonder what had been done to the coin.
