1770 8 Reale "Pillar Dollar" chopmarked. XF

Got this in today! Traded a different coin for it and boy is it a stunner!


PCGS doesn't give a solid grade to chopmarked pillar dollars so this is a solid coin just with chopmarks. XF/AU.

Nice coin! The chop marks are considered damage and PCGS does not give actual grades to damaged coins but they usually give a Details Grade.

Chopmarks, for a lot of collectors, are not considered damage. PCGS will grade chopmarks on some coins (like trade dollars) but not these.
