I just got this in todays mail and it has a chopmark over the foot of Liberty and you can see the damage that was transfered to the reverse. What grade would you give it from these pictures? I have the coin in hand and am sure that is has not been cleaned. Dipped most likely,but not wiped. It has very nice cartwheel luster when rotated.
The coin was graded AU-58 CM. It's the nicest 58 chopmark I have ever seen. I have seen worse in Mintstate holders.

Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

yip
Where is the chop mark? Is it in the water in front of Ms. Liberty's feet? It must be opposide of the damage on the reverse.

Read my mind.
<< <i>Aside from the damage, the coin is an AU with the mint frost broken rather extensively. It's not really close to "slider" (AU-58) status.

To be fair I can't count the number of 19th Cen American coins I have seen in MS holders with broken mint frost/ cabinet friction that were simply net graded.

coin and if you have nice cartwheels, you have an MS dollar.

Need a better image of the luster.

I think he's referring to the parallel scratches on the eagle from below the right wing all the way over to the left foot.

I see what you are referring to, but they are not scratches. Appears the wing feathers are lined up in a straight line.
