This one has a couple hits on obverse but otherwise I thought it looked pretty decent. Looks like small date variety which numismedia has a price of $132 in xf-40. I think I am good paying $70.   |

VF30 possibly details (cleaned) hard to tell through that haze. repost if you get her.

if you look at pcgs photo grade and other graded vf-30 cents they have noticeably more wear on the hair and the wreath on reverse. Not sure why everyone keeps saying vf-30 but I disagree. This site used to have a lot more input from people in the grading forum. Miss those days.

Going with VF30 also looks "Cleaned"; it could be due to the contrast in this picture.

another vf-30 parrot. Thinking I am done asking for grading opinions here.

I think it's close to XF-40, but not quite there on the reverse. So I'd say VF-35.

Jerry, these photos are really hazy and a little difficult to grade from. I looked at this post yesterday and decided not to comment because of the quality of the photos. I do agree that your example reflects better details than PCGS VF30 photo grade.
Please post up photos once you have it in hand.

Solid xf40. Nice surfaces. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
