pman860507 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 06/27/2011 7:20 pm i got this coin off ebay for 3.25. My guess would be VF-25. I want to know your opinions and why. I did notice there was a little rim damage I didn't know if that effected the grade or not. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

DavidZerbato Pillar of the Community United States 1081 Posts	Posted 06/27/2011 9:07 pm In a TPG eyes, the ding on the rim would probably prevent it from getting an actual grade, but it may not, it doesn't affect the overall look of the coin that much. As for a grade, I would say VF-20. There is a nice separation from the ribbon and the lower hair curl, "LIberty" looks to be fully there, the lower bar of the head band looks intact except for a few spots where there are hits. There is over all even wear that IMO warrants a VF-20, too many hits and dings to go higher IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
fenton Pillar of the Community United States 4989 Posts	Posted 06/28/2011 12:29 am Agree might have VF-25 or even VF-30 detail but it is banged up enough that a net grade of VF-20 seems fair Report this Post to the Staff

busthalf Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 06/28/2011 5:27 pm The dings are a deffinate problem. I'm going with VF-20 as an overall grade. Report this Post to the Staff
