That's grading standards handed on a platter to ya!
G04 is the best match, when you consider the stars on the reverse.

The 1927-s slq is graded to a whole different standard than other slqs....mostly because they are known for exceptionally weak strikes. Normally I would call a coin like this G-4 with a shot at 6...but being a 1927-s; its a VG.

I have a suspicion that the rolling and blanking for these may be a little inconsistent, inasmuch as there may be hard and soft areas on the blanks, which gives rise to the observation that some areas wear at different rates on the same area on differnt coins.
This will result in different grading opinions, when we look at different areas of the coin , rather than the same areas.
That would make the '27s SLQ harder to grade.

I'm leaning toward VG08 for the OP coin in this particular date, much nicer in person with a decent patina. -Very slightly more detail than another 27-S SLQ I have which I think is G06 : JMHO -Ron Appreciate the input, always an education here   Edited by Night-Hawk
