Grade Revealed: PCGS graded this coin VG-8. I thought they were a bit conservative with it and I'm glad to see the majority of the respondents felt the same. It has a nice smooth planchet which is hard to find with this series. In a way it's good they graded it as they did. It's going to get cracked out to go into my Dansco 7070 album. I probably couldn't have purchased it at a higher grade.

and this is where I have my reservations about any TPG.9 outta 10 like it as a vg-f so someone has spent 20-40? bucks for someone to label it as a vg8 for them-a costly venture

It's nice to have a conservatively graded coin. I'm not an early copper guy but VG8 sounds almost like an EAC grade for that one.

Seems they were a little strict on this one. It appears better than VG-8 in the photo.
