I just bought this coin on ebay, and it appears to be quite nice. I don't have it in hand yet, but I'm curious as to what grade you would assign it based upon the dealer's photos. Thanks!

I would safely call it a VF for wear.

geraltttt82 & oriole - Thanks for the input! Honestly, I was leaning(in USA grading standards) towards VF20-25 Reverse and a VF35 Obverse (maybe even EF40 given how the hair seems more nicely-defined than most VFs I have seen).
Rest in Peace

Looks like Kevin Sussman on a bad hair day.

Jest sayin'.

Archraz - I like that specimen a lot, and I'm thinking your assessment is pretty much spot on. Fortunately, it's the obverse that's the better side, so the question becomes whether the grader goes with that, or assigns a composite grade that drags it down ovwrall.

U.S. Grading I'd say a vf 30
