I can't see the reverse clearly but the determining factor for a 2¢ copper receiving anything above G-4 in my opinion is seeing the WE in the motto even if weakly. I think yours is a nice looking G-4.

Hi Pateio

Techniquely the coin will make G-4 with just IN GOD showing, F-12 if you can read the entire Motto and the WE is weak.

Your coin Looks G-6 to VG-8 to me from the pics you provided.

Based on "Photograde" by James Ruddy, I'd say G4. You can get away with a weak or missing "We" on the obverse and still get a VG8. However, the reverse needs all letters bold to score the same. Mike
