'LIBERTY' survives in full, but flatness on high points of the design (for example, Liberty's ear almost gone), results in a grade of VF30.

This example has more than just slight wear on the high points of the design (both sides).
Rest in Peace

Looks more 35 than 40. Original surfaces is a huge plus on these.

As for LIBERTY, it is helpful but not a conclusive diagnostic, especially on the P mints, which often suffer lower obverse strike irregularities.

I agree with Moxking, The coin grades as an EF40 by PCGS which I assume does not surprise anyone. Numismatic Student, thanks for your recommendation, I sold one of these before that had a somewhat decent strike. At this point, I do see many CCs that are weakly struck,overgraded as the CC I showed before is. I just want a nice clean type piece at this point regardless of mint mark.

Agree with 35. I even pulled up a reference guide and I couldn't get any higher than that.

Was looking at this more closely and noticed a scratch that goes from rim to rim over star 7. Not sure if the part that looks like it is on the field or the plastic.
