did not have one of these yet so I decided to start with a lower grade coin for now. Not famililar as to how to grade this variety. Looks maybe VG? http://www.ebay.com/itm/11128077614...refresh=true

Id give that one a G. Stars were likely weakly struck, but the rim is starting to fade away on the obverse. Reverse is probably vg but the obverse grade wins out for me most of the time.

i think the hair details are a bit harder to tell on the booby than on the braided hair cents. For me they are anyway.
