SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 01/09/2007 3:10 pm I'm wavering between VF30-35, but if you held a gun to my head I'd call it a really nice 30. Excellent original coin, and precisely in the grade area and look I'm collecting. Have you attributed it? I know the Large 8 version (as it seems to be in your pics) of that overdate has only O-101 and O-103, but I do not know the markers to differentiate them as I've yet to buy the book.

I think if you were trying to sell it, it would be an EF-40. I'm sure I've seen bust halves marked EF in this condition. But I don't have my photograde handy at work... Report this Post to the Staff
Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 01/09/2007 5:52 pm I'd call it VF20. There is a little too much wear on the eagle's wings and talons for me to any higher. This is a very nice example. By the way, the larger pictures are much easier to grade from. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
Tbar Valued Member United States 191 Posts	Posted 01/09/2007 6:06 pm My first reaction was EF....looking closer I would agree that there is a little too much wear on reverse for EF. My guess is VF-35. I would say it has nice eye appeal for the grade. Nice coin Report this Post to the Staff
