Hello all, a recent buy, and still only in my collection through the bias of seller images, until it arrives, anyone want to through out a grade? I paid exactly NGC catalogue value for an XF.
Bought another couple coins that I'll throw up for grading later too!
Thanks in advance!

The coin looks like it might have graffiti on the obverse in front of the nose.

I think it's dust, and not a scratch, but it might be.
As for the rim, no, that's not damage it's a typical looking weak strike.

This coins color is suspicious to me. Observation in hand is needed. The color seems great. Almost too great. If it is righteous, it looks to be a great coin. Much better than mine. AU something is my grade until you post your pics.

Well it's hard for me to grade as the color and background are making it harder for me. I don't see wear just light hits and marks. I know I'm all alone in saying this but here I go. MS64BN. Put up a picture with a light color background Please !

Looks pretty nice, but need better pics of the coloration, and the marks and discoloration in front of the nose.
