How can you have the obverse At VG-8 when there is no trace of LIBERTY ?


because I dont grade using one marker.

the amount of leaves on the crown(?) are all there and the obv lettering and date are sharper than on a G6. the clasp on the ribbon is completely separated from the ribbon. this was my reasoning for VG8. I dropped it a hair because of the flatness of LIBERTY but I think the obverse is even better at VG8+

I think we are all dealing with the ghost topic of uneven wear patterns, especially on larger coins like large cents, half dollars on up. So conceivably one could have a solid straight grade of F-12 on any said Barber half dollar, yet Liberty headband only shows say two letters, not consistent for a 12 grade.
