It looks like an XF, but technically I would guess VF-20."WE" is weak. But I still think its got eye pizazz!

VF25 (with a weak strike) Nice DDO 52Raymo, that coin begins to get tough in VF and higher grades. The coin could be better than it appears in the photos, maybe it's the glare. Doesn't look like any obvious cleaning either.

Thanks everyone ! This is the pic I was dealing with on ebay and I guess I was willing to gamble a little more than others that the color would be ok. I was really really happy when I saw a nice chocolate color. This one is way better than my other 67 DDO.

VF25

I noticed something funky going on with the motto, and remembered that there was a DDO known for the date. Good to see that I wasn't alone in noticing it.
