the purpose of the exercise is not to look at the other comments and grades its to grade it as you see it in order to improve your grading skills.

I am happy enough if I am one grading level away from the actually grade.

It is for me. I want to look at other opinions and see what I'm doing wrong.

I enjoy these 'guess the grade' threads for exactly that educational reason - helps all of us calibrate our views.

For what it's worth, the human head and right arm seem to drag the grading down towards VF35/XF40

I was going to say 35 or 40, but first saw the reveal.

I was thinking in the ball bark of VF-35/40 was not sure if it was cleaned as the untoned area looks quite bright .
I have seen quite a few of these where the reverse has better detail than the obverse.
