A little under $60. Thoughts? Thanks!

I'd say VF-25+, seems like a good value.

XF details. the photos look like it was cleaned. I'm basing that on the field preservation and the staining that appears to be lightened by a cleaning. any way you can post without overhead lighting?

cant grade these just by the shield as many are weakly struck. I always look at the highest points of the leaves and in this case we see fully defined veins and leave edges. you're not going to see that in a VF grade

VF30 Do not care for the off center strike and uneven wear/strike.

VF-30 with an older cleaning. It may straight grade.

This one finally came in. Very pleased with it. I see no indication of cleaning.
