Hi,

Got this one recently. There's a nice die crack from the 4 to the rim. I'm a bit confuse for the grade with GVI. The hairlines are more visible then they are with camera light. Would thing #F-45 would be fair?

Thanks!

Yes, I think XF40+ is fair.

I would go AU details as well (worry about obverse rim & scratches under magnification).

I really don't see anything severe enough to give this a details grade. AU-53.

I would put the reverse at AU53. The obverse appears to be EF40-45. My experience has been that obverse/reverse variation gets more common the bigger the coin gets. It's all about what it's been sitting on for the last 50 years and which side was facing down.
