Trying to work out if this coin is uncirculated but its very difficult from
these photos .What do you think


It\'s not about who you know it\'s about what you know

robbiegal

just my opinion
unc - maybe a tad bagmarked on the reverse / a bit of rub on the high points but minimal
i'd think that the pcgs boys (as they don't have girls) would wack a 63 or 64 (i'd be thinking 64 BN if it were my consignment)

Thanks Robbie just trying to work out if it's worth the investment

cheers
I don't have as much experience as others here and just did my own special grading standard: 'robbiseyesdidtheaussiegrading'
if they count every ding then maybe it would go down to a 62
I count up to 5 dings/scratches/bag marks regularly on most 64 pcgs grades and then they have the special surface assessment of which I know little

I usually think about the lowest grade it is likely to record at PCGS and use that as a guide. Blue Sheet has a value of $420 for 1932 penny in MS62BN (which sounds a little optimistic to me).

Yeah that's about what it would owe me slabbed so maybe not
worth the risk at that price

oh my florin

I'd second RobbieGal 63/64BN looks accurate the 7th/8th diamonds look a little fuzzy but the orb on top looks great so I would put it down to a slightly weak strike.

Makes it a bit more tempting thanks OMF

Do my eyes deceive me or does the reverse show signs of die clashing?

It looks MS62, perhaps MS63.  I think the lack of lustre or brilliance would preclude a higher grade.  Still a nice coin and one I'd be happy with.

Maybe a hint of doubling on the base of the word penny but hard to
see anything else in the photo

I agree Neal, to the right and down of the ONE to me is nose and moustache and through and to the left of the second N is the under chin. (Could be just me though). :angel:

Oh, and that may make the inner ear under the N in ONE.

PS: Nice coin Stevo!!!

Beautifully done FP!

It reminds me of Mark's lovely work on my 10c.
