This coin is graded by ICG, but I was curious what your thoughts on the grade are. The pictures of the reverse make it look off center, but it is the holder that makes it appear that way.   |

Looks G-6 to me, full rims, no LIBERTY visible, date appears to be right.

I'd say they went VG8 on the key with hints of letters showing

G-6. No letters in liberty visible which is required for VG

Very close to VG but, only a G-6 in my opinion.

It is difficult to tell but there might be a couple of letters in'LIBERTY' partially visible. G-6 if only 2 letters visible or VG-8 if there are more.

VG 8, I see some hints of letters in "Liberty." However, there is significant detail left in the headress and features. I wouldn't grade this coin, nor any coin, strictly by the book. Looking at the big picture, this coin has VG details and warrants a VG grade.

I'm still curious about whether there is a die crack between the wreath and the C in CENT. maybe it is a scratch on the slab? If it is a die crack, you could have the only one known for 1877.
