acloco,

Only 5 (easy) payments at 280.00 each?

My S-VDB is an F-12 and looks nowhere near as nice as yours.

Congratulations on the purchase of what appears to be a very well preserved key-date LWC.

You can choose to receive wild guesses on the grade ... or you can (please) use some photo-manipulation tools to crop the coin and eliminate the holder.

Better (closer) photos are needed for true grading opinions.

Negative ... a short while ago PCGS changed over to the 3-prong 'edge view' insert to keep up with NGC. All recent PCGS coins come slabbed this way.

I think I see some mint luster and the surfaces appear slightly glossy with a very nice chocolate brown color. I guess it could grade at least AU-58 and possibly MS but the pictures are too small to tell. Very nice key date!

Sorry on the pictures. I did not take the originals and am the second worst coin photographer there is. I have SERIOUSLY tried taking coin photos, spending some cash in the process on lighting, cameras, etc...to no avail.

So, these are crops of the original bitmap image of the seller.

I use internet explorer for web browswer. In the lower righthand corner of my, there is a magnifying option. You can zoom to 400% if so desired.

But, note, to see detail that we sometimes need to determine grades, doubling, etc...the original photo needs to have size and clarity to allow this to work.

So, my apologies for the small photos.

As the old saying goes....."in hand, this coin is excellent!". :)

At least AU, hard to tell from the tiny pics. I'll guess AU-50/53.
