AU55

fc · February 28, 2006 7:57AM

au58

i say 58 because i see a lot of luster left on that coin.
very eye appealing from the picture.

jdimmick · February 28, 2006 8:10AM

Is it genuine, if so , then Il say Au-50 even though I know nothing about colonials

DennisH · February 28, 2006 8:12AM

My reaction was AU50, due to how extensively wear is present in the fields.

looks like very old "harsh" cleaning marks in the field.

The old tooth brush and tooth powder trick from days gone by.

seateddime · February 28, 2006 8:14AM

I would guess AU53-55 but that is a guess

ColonialCoinUnion · February 28, 2006 8:37AM

Heres a hint:

The marks you see in the fields aren't evidence of wear, and they aren't 'the old tooth brush and tooth powder trick' either. Those are die polishing lines. The color is original and the luster is complete. Its MS. The question is what number?

By the way, the second coin was called 'unc.' in the stack's sale.

fc · February 28, 2006 8:38AM

well if AU58 is wrong... it must be MS62?

ColonialCoinUnion · February 28, 2006 8:39AM

You're getting warmer.

tjkillian · February 28, 2006 8:44AM

Very nice coin, clearly uncirculated. I will go with MS-64.

OffMetal · February 28, 2006 8:59AM

I'm going to try 63 for the first coin you posted

JDelage · February 28, 2006 9:37AM

Cook coin. Watizit?

coinkat · February 28, 2006 9:42AM

MS without question... 62-63 range and quite attractive.

mozin · February 28, 2006 2:02PM

When I saw your coin pictures I thought I was on the Dark side forum, one I NEVER will visit.

michael · February 28, 2006 3:23PM

64 liner 65

I'm not sure if I'm comparing apples to passion fruit but....the Ford coin is an uncirculated contemporary counterfeit. It was listed as "uncirculated" in Ford XIII. I haven't found an example of your coin yet, but it's different from the Ford coin. I can't even try to give it a grade without further study.

Colonials make my brain hurt.

Please grade this coin for me
