I used to avoid Capped Bust quarters because I didn't really like the way the obverse wore down on lower-grade specimens. (Barbers are even worse, with that spooky eye socket).

But I've been dipping my toe into the series lately. Can;t afford anything better than low-to-mid-grade stuff really. Whaddya think?

I'm thinking VG-10 here.

I'm at VG10, might just make F12, if it didn't get detailed for the obverse scratches at S1

F-12, maybe even F-15. Color is nice, surfaces look original, and the little obverse scratches are pretty minor. Nice coin!

Large diameter Capped Bust quarters are one of my all-time favorite coin series'. Yours sure looks like a Large O to me. Because of the original patina remaining (which is dang near all of it) I have no problem calling this an F12. Someone will come along and help you with a Browning number for it.

F12 for me as well, don't know the series well enough to pull the correct variety.

I'd say VG-10. It a Browning-2, the more common of the two large 0 varieties.
