I'll say VF-35 also. It is too worn to get all the way up to EF-40 IMO.

Nothing wrong with being a VAM enthusiast.

I started to look over mine because of some of your posts.

It's an incredibly weak strike, but doesn't have much wear. EF-45 or better. Might sneak into an AU-50 holder.

With the in-hand photos, I still see the obverse as VF-35. I now see the reverse on the VF-30/VF-35 bubble. I don't see anything that would detail or eye appeal drop-grade at VF, although the scratches east of the cap and on the throat could be eye appeal issues on a higher grade coin. I now have to net it as probable VF-35, rather than my original rock solid VF-35.

Still a darned nice example of a brutal VAM. You did well, my friend. That's a VAM I've never landed.

yep she is PCGS VF-35 she still has a little luster though not much and has some breast feathers though not well defined , the holder is very rough in that spot .

to me she is a classic example of a VF-35
