Got this one yesterday thinking it was an N-30 variety because of date position and the very weak and blunted LIBERTY. The die lines on back of head are hard to see on this one and all other examples I could find pics of. R-5 coin if I am correct. VF -20 or so? https://www.ebay.com/itm/295557986392

I'd say closer to VF-30, but lots of surface marks.

I'd agree with your VF20.

The "Liberty" could be a little stronger. I'll go with a little lower because of that, perhaps VF-25-30. A strong Liberty is one of the key elements for best grades on these. I think it's a very nice BH though. Congrats! $15 is good too.

I'm not sure on the attribution, but VF-20 seems closer to the grade that I'd assign this coin.

Nice color. I think the wear holds it to VF-20.
