"Mining the depths of junk" tonight. Picked up a junkish lot of IHC's, 6 coins for $16 ($2.66 a coin.) A "worse than scudzy" 1860 C/N, 1864 Bronze No "L", 1885 Fancy 5, 1886 Type 2, 1889, and a 1906.  Of this lot only 2 looked even remotely worth a fate other than filling holes, the 1902 and the 1864. This is the 1864. Seller's holder says "Fine", I think more like "Good" and maybe cleaned in the past. You tell me. At least it looks better than the 1860. But for $2.66, I'm not going to nitpick.

Looks like a F-12 or a F-15. Pics are a bit blurry. I think you did great on the lot. Something I would have bought JUST for that 1864. :)

Thanks CHD. It's nice to "win" once in awhile.

I cant tell if any of the LIBERTY is visible...so G-4 maybe VG-8 if in hand you can see some of the LIBERTY letters... but you got a great pickup with the 1864 coin...nice job!

If this was a G-04 or a VG-8, the reverse would be wiped and have pretty much little to no detail in the shield.

I'm at VG as well, but too blurry for me to pick a number. Not a Fine with feathers like that, imo.
