Looks like you cracked it out for your 7070 album? If so, good for you!

In fact I think XF-40 is more probable.

I did. Many of the coins in my 7070 were once in plastic prisons.

If there was only a VF38! LOL This one is so close I think it could go either VF35 or EF40 I do think EF45 would be a stretch, though I can even see that on a good day for a submitter. I will finalize my opinion at EF40 and a nice one at that.

Nice looking coin. I'm also on the fence....but I'll say XF40. Also wouldn't argue a choice VF-35.

PCGS graded VF35

When I purchased it I felt it may have been under graded a little so those of you guessing XF40 make me feel justified.

I did have a question if I may... on the obverse the 13 stars around the perimeter seem to want to stretch towards the edge. What would cause that? Could it be a later stage die? Thanks for everyone's input.

That is metal flow from Die Deterioration - not so technical term is "Shooting Stars"

Very nice for your 7070
