Hello
Thinking of maybe picking this one up.
What do you think of the grade?

Thankful for your input

Looks like that Union Solider took a hit. Right below the eye and in the nose

Is the obverse mark seen behind the eye of the Union soldier on the coin or its capsule? (The answer would definitely impact my opinion of the coin!)

Sadly not its on auction so no more pics. kind of strange mark for being on a silver coin so it might be on holder but impossible to know.

even if details worth some?
i will call them tomorrow about the mark

Thanks for Sharing,


I see wear, Also seen are necrotic or blackened spots around the perimeter of both sides of this 1936 Gettysburg Commemorative coinage coin shown , obverse and reverse..

I personally love most All 1930's Commemorative coins, ......

Can the OP post better close up photos , the obverse has a lot of small fine scratches seen, Looks from posted pictures it appears to have some wear.

Buy the coin, Not the slab, Best Wishes, .... MD

I don't think it's cleaned. If the "mark" doesn't get it detailed. I think it could make MS-63 or 64

Well got it for 185S including fees and postage. I think even if its in low grade these are worth money as fillers for collectors since the mintage is so low? Hopefully I get it before end of week.

Tx to all for pointers and help, I can only blame myself if its bad.
I have my eyes on a 1921 now but with hit on rim and poss dipped

Well a followup and I guess it was ok for what I paid.
And its a rare coin and I like the design. Most of these early 1900 commems have really nice designs and motives. The us mint should look in the rearview mirror more
