Title: Kell's Mule
Post by: trout on January 23, 2015, 01:59:10 PM
Kell sent this over to me to send off with my next Submission to PCGS, This will happen in a couple of weeks.
He also asked me to take a couple of images of it for him so here they are :ok:
This is a nicely centred coin .
Grading opinions are most welcome.

If there is some lustre still there, wouldn't surprise AU55.

It's an Ottlight thing with Alum-Bronze $1&$2 coins
blunts the lustre dead flat.
Try a 1mm shim under the Bust and under the Roos feet
Might just help.
(Breaks the photo RULE but worth a try)
