I got this from the 2024 SS Forum Exchange. What do you think it grades at? I'm thinking VF.

That gift left Errers centsless.

I agree with VF+. The obverse area around the date and behind the hair may have some damage? It's a bit out of focus so hard to tell for sure.

I'll go VF25/30.

There does appear to be some surface damage behind the hair bun and at the date.

Here are more pictures of my No "Cents" Liberty Head Nickel. The full obverse photo looks bright, because of the lighting.

It looks lightly cleaned but should straight grade. It's close to XF but not quite there imo. If the marks behind the hair are not into the surface (like divots) then it's okay.

BH1964, the marks behind the head are not divots thankfully. They appear to be light scrapes.
