Sellers pics. I picked this up as a hole filler for the Dansco album. Was thinking F15 with an outside shot at VF20.

Surfaces are a little dinged up. Thoughts?

VF-20 and it looks like it's been cleaned.

Take care of those two spots on the obverse before they get worse.

spot of verdigris at K5 obv. for me the coin has more detail than the grades here. the headband has almost complete edges defined. feathers have too much detail for a low VF coin, shield and bow have sharp edges as well with some weaker strike issues in the leaves surrounding the bow. even some the beads are there. I think the coin has high VF details overall but i'll net it down due to the overall hits and eye appeal to VF30 at worst

Thanks for the feedback, gents. Most of the IHCs in the Dansco are AG to VG, so this will be one of the relatively nicer ones in the album. I'll probably look to swap out some of the high mintage spots with some UNC examples.

Looks much better than F15 to me. Can't get a good idea of the surfaces, but a good chance it straight grades.
