I think VF. I have to say I was a little surprised on this one. When I saw 1878-S I just knew it was going to be a MS-65 or higher 78-S, never crossed my mind that it would be a circulated version until the pictures started loading

I grade it .

Nobody's noticed it's a Long Nock?

I saw in your thread at VAMword a classic illustration of something we've been batting around the VAM forum here for a while - one responder to your thread there used a pickup, with which he attributed your coin, that isn't listed in the VAMworld description of V57.

It's an image of everything I think is wrong with VAMming.

Yeah on second look VF25 is probably right I had thought it might just be an awful strike but on close inspection it is very heavily circulated

well of course, but I figured since it was here instead of the VAM forum he already knew what VAM it was. That comment of "until the pictures started loading" was because as far as I know there have been no 78-S long nocks been found in UNC condition yet (at least there wasn't the last time I checked which was about a year ago)

There are quite a few PUP's I use to identify certain VAM's that are unlisted on VW, I have often wondered why they will list something you have to have a very good picture to notice but will leave out a description of a PUP that you could see from across the room
