halfdollar Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I just got it in the mail this morning and haven't taken it out of the plastic yet. The pictures are a little dark, but I wanted to show the proof like fields. When I get back home I will post more pictures. Tell me what you think and maybe a grade guess.

grivna1726 Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I just got it in the mail this morning and haven't taken it out of the plastic yet.The pictures are a little dark, but I wanted to show the proof like fields. When I get back home I will post more pictures. Tell me what you think and maybe a grade guess. It looks OK to me. I do not see hairlines indicating cleaning. Prooflike fields and needle-sharp strikes are normal for this type (but not earlier types). Grade? I would say at least AU, possibly better.
