This is a tough one with these crappy photos of a coin in a 2 x 2. I took a chance based on the great detail the Indian has and nice rim separation from the lettering on the reverse. Sellers photos.

Looks like it had a nice strong strike. I bet the horn is actually better then the pic suggests.
This is not my series...but I would guess EF-40

On further review on a big screen, 1917-D is probably correct. I'd also say VG-8.

It looks like a D mint mark to me also.

I used a recently started using a feature on the Microsoft Edge browser to zoom in on images. This may be old news to everyone but me, but they now have 'Magnify image' as an option when you right click on the pic or just hover your pointer over the image and click the Ctrl key twice. It opens on a separate image-only page with controls to zoom in and out. It's really helpful when looking at images on the web!

F12 all around that coin. Only lacking detail in the horn which may be better than in the pics. Good luck!

I agree, this one was a disappointment. G-6 is where I see it also.
