My single purchase from the August ANA Show in Chicago. It's hard to get a pic in a slab without a bit of glare, plus the slab has a few scratches on it. Any thoughts on how to improve the pics?

What do you think it was graded?

I think it should be graded VF35, however, it wouldn't surprise me if it graded EF40 due to it being a key date.

I say VF 30 also. To get scratches off a slab I use a little WD 40 lightly rubbed on with a soft cloth or a Q-Tip they seam to disappear. Nice coin

Looks like PCGS.
I am also calling it VF35. As stated, they tend to bump up the 1877 so, XF40?
Great pickup!

I would say PCGS gave it an XF-40 as they tend to overgrade these a bit, but agree with 30/35.

EF-40, just because it's a key date. Nice grab!

Nice 'key' date.
