Is the 1892 S just a better date or one of the semi-keys? My thoughts on it are "well it depends" LOL have at it folks!

I'd give it a F-15 with these poor and tired old eyes of mine.

I'll take a guess and say VF30.

the mid-grade coins 25-35 seem to be the most challenging for me to assess.

VF30

NGC has it at VF30 mid grade examples are pricey tough to locate at full retail price all the VF coins I looked at were at a hefty premium that surprised me these were $180 - $220 five years ago

A net VF-30 seems spot on here. Notice the uneven strike, contributing to uneven wear. The leaves above the ribbon are clear, but the leaves over and behind the ear are merged. On the reverse, the corn on the right side of the wreath has more detail than the leaves on the left. At its strongest points, this coin is VF-35. At its weakest, it is VF-30. IMHO, the bean comes from the strike issue and the best parts of this coin being stronger than the circulation would indicate. Great circulation cameo, and a very nice coin!
