echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/03/2010 12:05 pm This coin looks like it has been cleaned using steel wool which has damaged the surface. I would grade it as VF-20 damaged. Report this Post to the Staff
patersc Valued Member United States 61 Posts	Posted 04/07/2010 12:24 pm Hi, I would agree with the previous posts. The scarring of the obverse is very pronounced. I would say VF details Improperly cleaned. Excessive scratches. Report this Post to the Staff

argentumandcoins Valued Member United Kingdom 60 Posts	Posted 04/27/2010 3:40 pm It would grade as NVF and cleaned here in the UK, or B UNC if it was being sold by most people on ebay UK!! Report this Post to the Staff
