I need some help with this one, I put the obverse at VG and the reverse VF30. All the lines are visible with only one small worn spot at the base of one of the pillars,(they look worn through the holder) and you can partialy see the lines in all but one of the leaves. Could the difference be due to a weakly struck Obverse? And what would the net grade be?

And this is Longacre?(sp)doubling, correct?

It's hard to tell from the pictures, but I think you may be undergrading the obverse.

It's at decent VF, maybe a bit better but I don't like the photos. That doubling is common because it's on the master hubs.

I was thinking VF as well...the beading on the coronet is too worn for a higher grade, but there's enough present to be better than F-15, at least if I infer their presence from the photo. (Better photos would help get a more definite grade.)

It looks like a VF.
