Classic Coins Pillar of the Community United States 940 Posts	Posted 05/26/2014 10:44 am I would give this a technical grade of VG-10. However, there is significant damage to the obverse, and there appears to be corrosion on the reverse. This drops the potential retail value to, I would say, less than half of VG-8. This is the more common reverse of 1867 variety. Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 05/26/2014 11:53 am It looks like it is corroded, and someone tried to remove it unsuccessfully with something acidic, which caused the damage.....but need better pics to know for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
