Woods020 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Being born and raised in Alabama, I thought it fitting that one of my nicer coin purchases be an Alabama commemorative.

JDrakeA Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I just got my order from the Mint, 400th Mayflower Anniversary gold coins and it’s tearing me up that I can’t look at them because they have to be unopened for NGC to grade them with their certificate numbers. Have to get the order form filled out and get them in the mail tomorrow and hope for a speedy return. No pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jacob S Posted November 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2020 Picked up this 1853-P Arrows Seated Liberty Dime. Any guesses on grade? Henri Charriere, rrantique and Woods020 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At first blush, I would assign this a grade of MS-67 though the reverse seems superior to the obverse. The strict constructionists among us, however, would insist that a Mint State coin must exhibit "no traces of wear." So where does that leave us? On the obverse, there appears to be a suggestion of wear on the face extending downward to the mid-section. The flag, or pennant, and bottom part of the shield, exhibit more of the same. Not sure how the oblique line extending under the left arrow would affect the grade. The reverse appears to have been strongly struck. There is, however, a suggestion of wear on the middle right leaf, a mysterious triangular patch of mottled ground NW of the top left bow and the swan dive-like line emanating from the E in ONE. Any member inclined to volunteer a grade would have to take all of these phenomena into consideration. I love the coin, which is in remarkable condition for its age, but am ill-equipped to volunteer a grade objectively. Let's wait and see what the experts with a purported 150 aggregate years of professional numismatic experience have to say about your lovely gem... rrantique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
