The wear on the eagles wings will keep it at 30-35 at best. Still a nice coin!

Does it really matter? Agree to disagree, if you have to. Neither of you can change the condition. Good fathers are much more valuable than coins. I miss mine  Let this one go through to the keeper. |

It's got nice eye appeal, maybe he is factoring that in too despite what the wear keep the grade to.

I too am at VF30 not sure it makes a solid VF35 based solely on wear, but it is a tough date (Semi-Key) and at the TPGs they seem to grade less harshly on them than on the common dates, so a grade of VF35 or even EF40 wouldn't surprise me too much. Most of these 1895-O dollars I run across are polished, or dinged up pretty good, you don't often find one this nicely preserved.

35 obverse, 30 reverse, drops it to a net 30. Nice coin nonetheless.

It's not XF, that's for sure.

Thank you everyone for the feedback. I'm gonna concede to my dad....it's a really nice, eye appealing hard date.

Concede if you must, but I don't think it makes XF.  |
