Burks Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 This is a coin I picked up at a show last week. Sorry the pictures are not the best but I'm learning. So what do you think it is? It has a grade on the 2x2 which I will post later this week to see how many agree with it (personally I do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stujoe Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 My dos centavos... I could go F12 with the coin if I could see all of Liberty since it has a lot of the details of a Fine. I can't see Liberty in the pic, though, so I went VG10 as I would be shocked if there aren't at least 3 letters showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Liberty although I "think" a little bit of the L is showing. Can't find my loupe so it is hard to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I don't work for a grading service, and don't claim to, so I grade realistically. Looks like a G-4 to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan769 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 A little better than Good, but not quite fine. Makes it a VG in my book. Nice coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hard to see the Liberty in the photo, but based on the overall look I would say VG/F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James B. Longacre Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 I voted for G-6, but upon further review, I'll go VG-8. Not a bad looking coin for the grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banivechi Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 F12 for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted October 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 The coin had a grade of VG on it. Personally I gave it a VG-10 before even noticing the VG on the card. The reverse was great while obverse was so-so. If the reverse was similar then the coin would not have came home with me. Not bad for $7.50 if I do say so. The reverse looks MUCH better than what the picture shows. Kind of had a problem with that side. Obverse is, well, what you see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Well, I gave it an F-12, and now I'm feeling like I over-graded. I think I was giving too much weight to the reverse, which I'd call F-15 at least. Front is probably about VG-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quartercollector Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Call me crazy or just a rooky but I wet for an F-15, at least that is what I think is going to be on the 2x2. But I really think it should be a VG-8 on the overse and ther reverse should be a VG-10 and that is my real rooky opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful Coins Again Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hello everyone, I am new here and adding my two cents. Hope you don't mind. G4 obverse due to the fact that the owner stated, "No Liberty although I "think" a little bit of the L is showing." Here is a nice VG8 obverse... VG8 reverse but no higher due to lack of feather details. BCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggAndyy Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 1912-S Barber Half, Can you grade me? No, I can't. I can't even see you clearly. Maybe my mom was right and if I keep doing that I would go blind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burks Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Check it now BigAndy. I forgot I had crappy pictures of that so I replced the old pictures with new scans. Shows up much better. BTW that is not a scratch across her face, it's on the 2x2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
