This is marked G+ but thinking it is more VG-08. What do you think?

Wrong section. Belongs in grading.

VG-08 sounds right. Nice!

Good obverse, VG reverse. I'm not seeing any letters in "LIBERTY" to give the obv a VG.

VG-8

Obverse: There is enough detail in the leaves remaining to make the VG-8 grade. I don't feel it should matter that none of the letters in LIBERTY show because the "O" issues are known to be softly struck.

I see the "L" and part of "I" in LIBERTY. I know VG dimes have the L, part of T and Y. I think the TY is hard to see because of the toning which happens. It can be difficult to see the letters of "LIBERTY" in VG-O8, easier to see the wreath detail.

The marking is correct. G + 1 = VG.

It seems in this lot I got the under-grade coins cancel out the over-graded one. I see someone hand-wrote "fine" on a few 2x2s and most our G or VG. They got one right.
