closer to VG since the rims are worn...a weak strike with sharp rims would be F+...value about $350 IMHO

Not a big difference in price between VG - F (or all the way to MS62 for that matter). I bought it as a VG10-F12 for about $300.

I think this is a F12. Nice looking coin for the grade in this low mintage coin. I think you made a pretty fair buy at $300.

Returning this coin due to questionable authenticity. I see a very light discolored spot under the "O" in one on the reverse, suggesting that a mintmark (most probably an "S") was removed. The bottom part of the "O" is also more worn that the rest of the letter. Also, none of the die characteristics from the 3 known dies are present on the obverse.
First time purchasing a raw key date from ebay since the fake 1909-S IHC and I get another questionable coin.
Now to get my money back... Seller is a big time powerseller and probably would not want a feedback on selling counterfeits on their ratings.

Let this be another lesson to anyone buying raw coins from ebay. Be on your guard !
