This is my second time asking. The last time I only had scans in the plastic holder. The first 2 are scans of the naked coin.

 

 

The next 4 are digital camera images at slightly different angles.

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to all for their reply.

I'll call it 62+. The toning is almost certainly dipped and retoned, some find this acceptable, some find this unpleasant. There are a number of marks on the obverse, which is why I graded it 62 - although the reverse appears cleaner, the black spots are a deterrent.

Hey Charlie,

I'll call it MS 62 as well. The cheek looks very marked up.Most luster missing. The reverse is better.

[Bugmann1974]

I would say MS61-62, that coin has a heck of a lot of chatter on it.

[michael]

dip residue re-toning but this is easily fixed by a really quick proper dip

 

coin is a commerical unc. ms-60 61 ish coin

 

decent coin and if decent eye appeal with some lustre present ( after the dip)

 

see below

[michael]

after it is properly dipped and since i have not seen this sight seen then if not any problems i am missing by not seeing the coin in hand

 

then pcgs au-58

[James_OldeTowne]

I am thinking MS-61 on this for reasons specified by others: a lot of chatter on the cheek.

[bsshog40]

I'm gonna agree with MS62.

 

Hey Michael, whats up with this pcgs thing??

 

then pcgs au-58

 

I'm starting to think I'm ATS.

I thought details looked about 63 on first glance. Upon re-inspection, I feel 62 would likely be tops, and I don't love the toning, and it pretty apparently appears dipped given the contrast of the device to the toning of the field.

Thanks everyone for your opinions.

I was just givin ya a hard time my friend!

Based on similar slabbed coins in my collection, (without the fake tone) I'll call it a 60.

[CHABSENTIA]

I would have gone MS61

[CHABSENTIA]

I would have gone MS60 on it with the first pictures. There is no detail on the breast feathers and no detail around the ear on the obverse. The digital camera made everything look a little better.Then it becomes MS61 on the basis of the pictures, however. the black spots bring it down to a MS60 and possibly an AU 58+.

MS 60 is actually pretty hard to get.Most times MS 60 will be called either AU58 or MS62. I'm not really sure why. New Orleans minted coins have almost universally flat breast feathers in most dates.I read somewhere they changed the die heights to close further apart to cut down on wear and tear.
