kookoox10 Pillar of the Community United States 1054 Posts	Posted 04/25/2012 4:26 pm Conservatively, I would grade it a G-6. Might have an outside shot at VG-8 but all the shield lines are kaput. Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 04/25/2012 5:16 pm I would give it a F-12 based on these pictures from PCGS Photograde; http://www.pcgs.com/Photograde/#/ShieldNic/Grades sigh, another type (with rays Shield) I don't have for my 7070...yet.

rycolemet Valued Member United States 238 Posts	Posted 04/26/2012 09:23 am Thanks everyone! I have one other coin I am unsure about. It is a 1920 SLQ that said on the original 2x2 fine on one side and good on the other. When I bought it I assumed the lower grade was the correct one.
