As is, 58. Might go higher with a dip.

Looks new, with one big spot and speckled toning. I might be tempted to dip this one. If sent in
as is, maybe MS 62?

Looks to me like it's probably been dipped before. And maybe not rinsed well. Or perhaps it's just not be stored well.

The spot is unfortunate. I'm not big on dipping but I think I'd try it and hope for the best. Maybe a quick dip, or a diluted one. If you overdo it and it comes out lifeless it will probably not grade cleanly.

One big spot and speckled, I'll say 63 with a better than average strike.....

Edit to say....Nice rims and planchet...

If you dip it and it shows clear rub on the knee 58, else 63.

I'm gonna with 58. I like it, even with the spot.

GoldenEyeNumismatics · January 24, 2011 6:24AM

if the spots dips out, 64.

roadrunner · January 24, 2011 6:26AM

63-64 if the spot and/or pvc is not factored in. That's a big if though. Might not TPG grade at all if that spot is of the "green" variety or there is PVC on the coin.

EG......Extremely Grubby. Oh wait, you mean the coin?

SamByrd · January 24, 2011 11:29AM

lower mint state perhaps MS62

Walkerguy21D · January 24, 2011 11:35AM

I don't see any true wear on the coin, but as everyone has pointed out, the surfaces are a concern. It might be worthwhile, depending on what you have in it and what you think it could potentially grade, to have NCS 'conserve' it. If you bought it right and you think it has a legit shot at a 63 or 64, this might be the way to go.

NumisOxide · January 24, 2011 11:36AM

MS62, spot gone 63.

Halfhunter06 · January 24, 2011 11:52AM

looks UNC to me, MS 63

DoubleEagle59 · January 24, 2011 12:53PM

64

58

AU58. The spot and toning/luster (or lack thereof) turn me off a tiny bit, but not too much. I would dip it, but one has to worry that it might have already been dipped? Sorta has that look, at least in the pictures. Then again, if there is some luster there that I'm not seeing, I might change my tune if I saw it in hand.

Even if you just got rid of the spot, I would like it a whole lot more. But it would be hard to treat just that one area without then having to dip the rest of it, I reckon.

As-is, I like it OK but don't love it. Nice detail, of course.

I think this coin has seen some work done to her in the past.
That's a shame.
That said, it is a nice coin that could use a little conservation from
someone/somewhere that knows what they are doing.
