This is not my coin , I am on the fence if this is a details scratched coin or not. Reverse . This to me looks VF-25 possibly details. Being this grade though I am thinking it could straight grade but Just curious all your thoughts based on the pics we have to work with.

I'd give it F15, lightly cleaned OBV.

One of the great condition rarities. Decent mid-grade example.
Obverse F-12, reverse F-15. I think the scratches could be an issue at EF/AU, but not on a mid-grade coin. The scratches are older and don't detract from the overall appearance. I don't see the rubbing/cleaning being enough to detail the coin either.
Overall, IMHO, F-12 straight.

Should straight grade, fine-something. Although the 1892-S is a notorious condition rarity it is inexpensive in lower grades. I wouldn't invest a grading fee on an example that doesn't at least approach XF.

The price jump from AU to UNC is a wee bit rugged. Even though this one would straight grade, there are a lot of F/VF coins out there with better eye appeal.

I'd net this one out around VG-10. Technically F-12 but looks dipped.
