I like french coins. Doing the 20 francs collection, one of each type. Already had a 20fr coq but it was a restrike.So I got this earlier version, with the DIEU PROTEGE LA FRANCE inscription.

20-Francs-Marianne,-Coq,-1905

There circulated and are harder to find in very nice shape. I think this one can be called uncirculated, with only bag marks. But came to ask opinions.

Very light rubbing in exposed areas of the fields both sides, that has disturbed the surface luster,
no wear on the high points of the design, both sides,
light nicks on Liberty's cheek, which, in my opinion, are not bag marks, (they usually tend to be deeper).
Rim edges consistent with 'uncirculated'.

If I was a dealer, I would be selling it as 'uncirculated'.

Yes the nicks are very superficial.

Thanks
