Sorry for the delay, but I've been busy with school. As for the previous photos, I was using a new lightening source, so I guess it gave it a cleaned look. But all the marks you see on the coin are there, just not as bad. The second photos is about 95% how the coin looks in hand. I'll revel the grade this weekend.






Grade: PCGS XF40

Thanks for the comments!

Couldn't decide between VF-20 and VF-30

So I'll say VF25

Based on the lines in the shield on the obverse and the detail in the stars on the reverse, I'm going with VF-30.

Maybe it's the lighting but the obverse looks cleaned. I agree with the VF 30 details. I will be interested to see if you got it in a NGC holder (by the photo it's obviously not a PCGS). I am guessing ANACS or NCS.

Looks cleaned, but it's in an NGC holder ?

I'll go with VF25 details, cleaned.

This slipped through PCGS? Those scratches on the shield really look like cleaning.
