this is a beautiful coin. note a couple rim bumps on the reverse. I'm with coinfrog VF20 and very nice example. I think this one grades straight.

Obverse looks XF-40 to me, reverse is much weaker. Typical for the variety, perhaps?
Seems like there is a trace of porosity. Don't know if it's severe enough to "detail" the coin at a TPG. Very attractive coin regardless.

Looks raw. I'd say VF-25, very nice!

Thank you!
I agree with your grading opinions, mainly a little lower at F12 to F15.
The high relief head tends to cause overgrading sometimes.

i still think it can make VF20 due to the overall look of the coin.

I'd certainly pay VF-20 money for it if I had the dough.
