New definition of XF?
"randiR" wrote in message . .. Could anyone with a shred of decency grade this ( http://tinyurl.com/6d5fnw ) a XF? What, can't you see the XF under there? Looks like it actually may have been net graded from AU58 because of the minor asteroid hit beneath the ear. Otherwise, the seller offers that it's a beautiful scarce coin to add to the collection and that the coin looks even better in person. What more could a collector want ?? He even provides a photo of what appears to be the reverse where I believe I can make out the image of the Virgin Mary in the rubble above ONE CENT. One smart fellow has already jumped on this .99 opportunity. |

This was a buried coin, perhaps found with a metail detector or just unearthed while digging for worms. It IS one of the toughest dates in the series, and through the corrosion, pitting, verdigris, and missing pieces one might be able to make a case for XF details, but it's merely a filler. Since you can read the date, I suppose one could say the grade is a NET Fair. A youngster working on filling his/her Indian Head Cent Whitman folder might be happy to have the date until he could afford a better one. I saw an 1877 cent on eBay in similar condition sell for about $150 a couple of years ago. I think this one is worth a couple bucks. Ira |

I think that this is to be expected with the elusive "no diamonds" variety
