Here's a grading challenge for you Flowing Hair design fans. It's in a PCGS slab. Can anyone offer a positive Overton number assignment for this coin?

...just interested, can you take a pic of the edge? I don't think the Red Book has a pic of it, just a description.

How about VG-8 as a grade
Overton 110a?

Is that gorgeous old hunk of silver yours?

That coin is way out of my grading league but I will call it F-15

Can't help with the Overton #, but I agree with F-15. Very nice.

Looks like a VF-20 and agree, possibly an O-110 (R-3/4) coin.

Take Care

PCGS decided this coin grades VF-25. I think that was probably at the upper end of the likely grade range. It does have nice original surfaces with good eye appeal given the level of wear.
