An inexpensive find that will look good in my Dansco.

I think it's right around G6 and looks quite original to me, but wanted to see what opinions CCF has to offer. Seller pictures, not mine.

Acording to PCGS grading - this is a G-04

Yes, the OP's coin looks to be a G-6 based on the headband.

Strong G-06 on the obverse with even the "L" showing. Solid eye detail as well. Reverse is weak around rim and looks more like G-04. Call it a G-06 for me. I like it. I have many of these in lower grades and decent lower grades are hard to find. I'd go for this myself.

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."
