I consider this to be a very fine coin but when I compare it to the PCGS photograde, it is closer to XF40. What would you grade this coin?

I think there is a lot of this coin at XF-40 or maybe even 45. But there is some wear on the Shield that looks like VF-30/35. So this is a tough one for me, but I would say overall XF-40.

A tough one for me too. It looks better than the PCGS Photograde XF-40 as far as the ribbon separation from the hair.. For me, the details of the little hair curl near the ribbon but not all the diamonds is a dead ringer for an XF but seeing from the PCGS photograde this is not needed, just the left side of the ribbon being almost completely separate. I was thinking that too, XF-40 as well despite not fully qualified as my version of an XF.
