I would tend to agree. This looks comfortably in the VF category to me. If you got it for F12 money, you probably got a nice deal.

I got it for 60 flat. IT does have some pretty nice toning on the reverse.

Any bust have expertsd out there?

I don't have Photograde handy, but isn't the clasp the key factor for VF. I don't see it as being very "clear". Although the hair is visible at the forehead. I will say a conservative F15 judging by the photos only. Still a good deal for $60 I think.

Great buy on a VF-20/25 flatly/softly struck coin.

I will agree with what ever bonedigger says because he knows more about this series than I do

Thanks for the confidence guys, but (my) grading standards are a combination of the RedBook and a basic knowledge of the time and series. I'm a tad more liberal in grading than most...

Take Care
