If you were selling this coin, what grade would you give this 1834 Half Cent?

If you were buying this coin, what grade would you give this 1834 Half Cent?

I know, I know, they're the same grade--but the perspective can be different.

That scratch in front of the face - focal area...color looks milk chocolate-y. Reverse is dirty and more worn than the obverse. Minor rim ding obverse, not excessively distracting.

TPG VF30 details. (selling - graded on technical merit only, and may full grade if scratch is not deemed important)

TPG VF25 (dropped it a step due to reverse) details; EAC obverse low VF/reverse F, net F (buying)

VF-30 looks right to me as well. Don't think the scratch will hurt it.

That's a very tiny scratch, I think a TPG would let it slide. VF-30
