I'm pretty sure this is wholesome, but I'm not entirely sure due to the small amount of rim and moto merging on the reverse. What is your opinion?

By way of comparison, this example came back with an ANACS
grade of VG-8. Both examples show almost identical details.
"Eye Appeal" is another question entirely.
I would not be surprised if PCGS gave yours a VG-8 as well.
The rims and lettering on the reverse ARE complete. Weak
to be sure but complete. And the "V" indentation is
not at all unseen.
Yours deserves at least a G-6.

I agree with Good-6. The obverse could squeak a VG-8 but the weak reverse rims should hold it back. The punch mark apparently is small enough so it doesn't qualify as damage, as least at this grade level.

G4 I'm surprised it didn't come back with details grade as it has what looks like a big rim bump and the triangle punch on the reverse plus scratches.

I would say an overall G4; full rims on the obverse and a few partial letters in LIBERTY, but not so full rims on the reverse.

G-4. Not too concerned about the triangle punch since it is essentially on the rim. Might hurt the value a bit but won't be a deal breaker.

G6 details, but there are quite a few things I can see that I would net the coin down with.
I am honestly shocked it's in a problem free holder. PCGS may have "netted" it without saying to a 4.
I've had coins with much tinier issues come back bagged (recently).

G6 looks about right to me.
