I don't generally connect foreign coins, but had a bag of these in my safety deposit box from the late 70s, and just this week set them free. So I'm posting some of the more interesting one (at least interesting to me). I'd love to heard what grade folks would give this. Thanks.

It looks like F-12 but I will say F-15, somewhere around there.

Thanks. Because of the detail in the hair and the face (eyes, mouth), I was thinking along the same lines, F-15, or VF-20 if I were really lucky ;-)

Nice F-15 I think the reverse is keeping it from VF20

The obverse definitely looks like a VF20 but the reverse makes it a F15

Okay, thanks everyone. Yeah, I was paying more attention to the obverse than the reverse.
