BrokaToe Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 06/06/2011 11:07 pm I would say this one would make G-4 IMO, the whole date and mint mark are still readable, but many areas are worn smooth. Report this Post to the Staff

1893S Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 06/06/2011 11:37 pm Your coin is VG+...The 1913S is well known for a weak strike. Full date and half a horn equals VG+...If this coin was only in the G range the date would not be as visible and you would barely see the horn....Cheers! Report this Post to the Staff
mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2604 Posts	Posted 06/07/2011 11:58 am I disagree with several others but concur with 1893S. I think this is VG 10 for reasons stated by 1893S. However the darkness and scratch on OBV could knock it back to VG-8 Report this Post to the Staff
upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 06/07/2011 2:22 pm VG 10 but would probably get "details" if sent in. I believe the discoloration is environmental damage. Nice coin that would match many of the coins in my set. Report this Post to the Staff
