I have a new found love for these little guys. If the dansco book didn't include the early heraldic eagles I'd pick one up. Right now I'll just be happy working on a "short" set   Edited by shadowtrooper78

My grade would be VG-7, but I don't think that they use that number, so VG-8.

I saw the obverse, and I was hoping for the JR-2. Oh well, JR-1.
VG-08

Those rims are really strong for a VG in this series but the devices, particularly the obverse, don't look Fine. I'd call it a VG10 by current TPG standards. |

Just a reminder, the word "LIBERTY" is not a grading point in this type. The letters are so sunken into the coin that they will show even on a pieces that grades Fair.

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
