Looks VF-20-ish to me. The rim bruise at 9:00 on the obverse (and 2:30 on the reverse) detracts a bit. The field between OF and AMERICA looks like it might have been smoothed. Maybe it's just my imagination?
Anyway, nice coin with lots of detail. Wish I had one... Congrats!

She's a nice old crusty nice . . yes old . . yes crusty . . not in the least - great eye appeal - based on hair and wing feather detail I would say F-15. And I agree with BB-20. Here's a couple pics from Heritage for comparison. This one sold for $253K June 2011 @ Long Beach.   |

@jeffrose- Thanks for helping to confirm. @John1- check PM @Jaobler - Posting few other photos. Appreciate your observations. @mkman123- I contacted him after he pulled the listing. Figured he might be getting lowballed. Great seller to deal with. It was a win/win for both.  |

What a nice early issue! A couple of rim bruises but I don't think they detract too much from the appeal of this coin. As for grade, I would guess F-15.

I wasn't expecting it to be slabbed. I thought it was raw.

Looking at the slab pics appears to be a slight die rotation.

@Doubl3Eagle- 1st photo sure could have made it look that way. For me, slabbed is the way to go with these.
@Indian- I had hoped she looked as good in hand. Thanks for your input! It was exactly what I was looking for. As original as they come IMO.
