jessvc1 Pillar of the Community United States 2596 Posts	Posted 11/01/2011 2:01 pm It has a nice full rim and LIBERTY and the ribbon is bold I think it could be XF from the strong details. Report this Post to the Staff

mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2604 Posts	Posted 11/01/2011 2:56 pm I'd say this is a F. It does not have enough feather details, strong enough liberty and not enough diamond details for EF- that's too generous. I can see it going VF, but the coin has obvious problems- cleaning, greenish verdigras, rim bump at 9 pm on obverse (?) which would collectively drop it to F details. Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 11/01/2011 5:55 pm Hard date to find in any condition, nearly makes EF, but I'll say VF-35 with a light corrosion. Report this Post to the Staff
muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7336 Posts	Posted 11/01/2011 6:36 pm Sorry about the poor photo quality, I'm using an old film camera and subsequent photos are not showing the detail with such a dark coin, I'll keep trying. To me it is VF 30. Report this Post to the Staff
