Good evening,
can I ask you opinion on this coin?
My guess is F12.
Here are the pictures:

I would say a solid F-15. Lots of marks but otherwise nice!

I'm also in the F15 camp. Too bad it didn't have an S mint mark.

I'm in the F range as well. Perhaps an old cleaning.

Please get in the habit of including the denomination in your thread title.

I'm going to ask a moderator to do so for you.

you should refrain from stating your opinion on grade. it can affect others looking at the coin. keep it to yourself and then compare it to the assessments to see how you did.

F15 - old cleaning

Authentic, good looking, in collectable condition, a TPG would probably say F 15.

Agree with everyone else assessments, but wait you have a quarter dollar there, not half as your title says.

My mistake on the topic title, sorry. It is a quarter dollar.
Is there a way to change topic title?

F15 with an old, market acceptable, cleaning.

My vote also. Really strong rims. I like the coin. An old cleaning yes but overall the coin has kept its overall tone.

Yes - you use the 'Report this Post to the Staff' link in the lower right corner.

The OP never included the denomination in the title. I asked a moderator to do it, and I just now asked a moderator to correct it.

Late to the party, but I'm also at a solid F-15 here. There is an older cleaning, but I believe most of the TPGs would call it market acceptable. On a bourse floor, this older cleaning wouldn't be an issue.

My only hesitation is with the marks between Liberty's right arm and stars 1-7 (our visual left). I can't tell whether these are random contact marks from circulation or well-worn graffiti.
