These middle grades are tougher for me. Figuring "details" with the verdigris and hits, but any help with the grade would be appreciated. Maybe VF20ish? It's sitting in Verdicare right now.

I'll lead off with VF-25. This could clean up nicely with VerdiCare.

I'm at VF-25 Details ? Not sure if those amount of hits would be considered a details coin.

Ed, I like VF20 as well. The reverse leaves are a little too flat for VF 25. Lots of hits and some verdi give it details like you said. Good details in the hair.

Applied a little Verdicare. I didn't use a toothpick or anything, just a minimal application.
