It was suggested that I start a new thread for this rather than going back to the original thread. If I'm wrong, the moderators will adjust it and my apologies for this error. Below is the coin now in a PCGS holder. Different picks, same coin. You be the judge. I'll post PCGS results tomorrow. The hair/lint was on the outside of the holder. Thanks guys.

F12 is my guess. I don't see a jaw line. A subtle woody, too.

At least I'm consistent; I guessed the same grade on the same coin on a different thread. Let's see what the 'pro's' say.

The only hint I'll give you was the same one I posted in the other thread.

It was NOT cleaned.

It should be VF20 but I wouldn't be surprized if they gave it F12-15.

VF-25, there is lots of definition & seperation in the wheat ears.
Rest in Peace

And the winner is Drsandman2.
oih82w8 I only wish you were right. Maybe they were tough on my coin.

Thanks to all for playing.

Very nice coin! It's the flatness and loss of detail on the obverse portrait that held it back. The reverse is every bit of VF.

I agree the reverse is VF, just a weak strike on the obv; imo.
