Some opinions on this coin please. I am seeing it as a vf35, but I can't tell what the blue coloring is.Also is there hairlines or scratches on the obverse.
Thanks!

I'd put it at VF30. May have been lightly cleaned at one time.

An old light cleaning, but a beautiful die clash on the reverse... A solid VF-30...
Rest in Peace

Nice coin. I think it might make XF, but 35 seems fair.

Looks XF to me. I'd grade it 40 and maybe even XF45. These almost always show strike weakness as yours does.

Looks solid for VF-35 and might squeak out a '40. The minor marks on the obverse don't rise to the level of a problem IMO and I don't see any obvious hairlines or other cleaning evidence. Looks like a righteous specimen!
