1920 20 C? (Centimes but I thought that was a French denomination??) From Italy. Beautiful images. I wonder was a BU example would look like as some of the details away.

The coin is a "Centesimi" and is worth about $3.00 in very fine condition,
If you can find someone interested.

Coop, I'll bet it would be AU55, if it hadn't had so much caressing!

I've heard of a grading company that grades mostly MS-70. Maybe I should sent it there Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing
Maybe just bein graded high will bring out more of the detail Laughing Laughing

Coop, I don't think it is an "X" rated coin, more like a "Y". I don't see any "X" there....
Let's just hope it doesn't get "rubbed the wrong way"

So with this coin every time it gets graded the touching reduces the grade by one point Wink

Maybe they can put that on the reverse of the Clinton dollar Rolling Eyes

Hmmm... exactly the opposite of the Adams-Carter and Berg-Garrett 1804 silver dollars... both went from EF-40 to high-end AU in steps between NGC and PCGS...
