I usually have a low bias, but I'm at VF30 on this one. Plenty of leaf detail on the reverse.

I agree that the leaf detail is very good, however, the obverse is so worn that is counteracts the nice reverse.

So what is your grade?

It is flat/lifeless, to me, and has little appeal beyond the date; I can't see how it goes above VF25 or an optimistic VF30.

YMMV.

Well CAC is accurate. A very "choice-for-the-grade" F-15 and perhaps even under-graded by a hair and should make VF20.

I respect your POV. To me, this is a very nice circulated coin. Great originality and you're hard pressed to find them in this grade range untouched by rags, water and the like.

Thanks to all for your guesses.

VF20 sounds nice and some verdicare could have helped before grading.

I haven't used Verdi-Care on silver coins yet; does it actually work on them?

Pretty sure it doesn't matter witch metal because it only affects the verdigris.

Acetone would be the only thing to use on it before grading. If you use VerdiCare it would likely come back questionable color.

15 is low, it deserved a gold sticker. It should be a 20 and maybe even 25.
