VF35. Looks like you cracked it out for your 7070 album? If so, good for you!

I'm at VF-35 as well, 40 would not surprise.

 In fact I think XF-40 is more probable.

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.
