mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2602 Posts	Posted 05/05/2009 08:57 am I'd like a refresher from someone knowledgeable on how to grade this series. My best guess is G-VG. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 05/05/2009 12:04 pm In my experience the '27-S comes with a soft strike and therefore has a relaxed grading standard compared to most SLQ dates. I think this one could go VG-10 or F-12 at a grading service. It looks nice and original. Report this Post to the Staff
steve199 Pillar of the Community United States 1882 Posts	Posted 05/05/2009 7:40 pm I agree with Jaobler. That one is on the bubble between VG10 and VF12. Nice coin! Edited by steve199 05/05/2009 7:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
mklpatrick Pillar of the Community United States 580 Posts	Posted 05/20/2009 5:43 pm On the reverse with the letters worn into the rim, especially at the bottom, wouldn't that give the overall grade something like VG-10 max? Report this Post to the Staff

Moe145 Pillar of the Community United States 8904 Posts	Posted 05/21/2009 7:48 pm My best guess is VG-10. Congrats! Nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6384 Posts	Posted 05/22/2009 12:52 am For comparison, here is a coin I've posted before. This one is graded by ANACS as VF-30. Most CCF graders had it pegged at about F-15. If my coin is fairly graded at VF-30 Biokemist's example likely has a shot at F-12. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 05/22/2009 01:14 am I think yours is a bit overgraded, but it could be a notch over F-15 because of the weak strike. Report this Post to the Staff
