Anybody care to grade this coin....

Wow, now I think you have something there. Just from the obverse, nice frosty luster! Hardly a mark,cept for maybe a light mark on the neck? I'll guess 65 from the obverse alone!

Nice strike! It might be worth it to have it conserved. What does the reverse look like?

That original crust does not need to be conserved.

 

I see a light bit of wear on the hair. AU58? Nice lustrious coin! (thumbs u

OK, i played a little trick on all you guys. I have noticed that most (not all) tend to under-grade big time! So the truth about this little 1921 is that its a NGC graded MS63....

 

here is the link to this exact coin:

I still see wear on the hair and on the eagle. I still say AU58.

 

And Chris, that is toning.

 

We shall see if the folks on this board undergrade big time. I recently sent 4 coins off to NGC that I have posted guess the grades on in the past and I will make a comparitive post in this section of the board to see what the turnout is.

Looking at the mega closeups... I think it's a 64!

I'll bet that's what you used to tell your Mom when she said, "Be sure to wash behind your ears!"

Nope, told her that I was trying to grow moss back there for a science project
