I am Think the wear looks more like a xf 40 but with the damage in front of the face and parts of reeds missing I am not sure that is fair grade. All things considered I am thinking more like vf 35? Let me know what you think Report this Post to the Staff

Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 08/31/2021 11:21 pm Overall I'd say VF, VF25/30. Lack of dentils that you mentioned is not do to damage, but a strike weakness. Possibly a slightly tapered planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
