Recent LCS purchase, curious about what CCF members' opinions on the grade might be. Thanks for looking

It looks VF but details because of the scratches along the jawline and what appears to be a square impression in the face.

Agreed, I was thinking the rim damage would also give it a details grade.

It might catch VF Details but it's Fine Details for me. The scratches/scrape on the cheek plus what appears to be a significant rim hit @ 7:30 of the Obverse & 10:30 of the Reverse likely keep this one from grading straight. Nice looking coin otherwise though, looks original and I like the toning.

she looks VF35/XF40, the rim hits are not bad to detail the coin as they are not impinging the denticles, however, the hits on the cheek would. they are displacing metal and typically would pull the designation.
