Probably only got an EF-45 from ICCS but I think it's probably closer to an AU-55

EF40
Should be 45
Too much wear for AU.
It's undergraded.
Otherwise you wouldn't be asking for a grade in the "you VS." format.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

I will jump into Coinfrog's pond.
Wear on the leaves and hair around Vikkie's ear suggest
AU53.

I don't get it right all of the time.
Neither do the Third Party Graders.

That is why we all should learn to grade for ourselves.
On reconsideration, I am still happy with
AU53.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One problem with third Party graders that requires some consideration:
The submitter gets a better than expected grade for the coin,
= probable repeat business.
The submitter gets a much lower grade than expected,
= probable business for another grader.

When the graders do their thing at ICCS they have the raw coin in 'hand', makes a lot of difference grading on a computer screen and through plastic so yes, it's never going to come out right the way we do it.

And, I think they missed this one.
