What grade would you put on it just by judging the picture? I was thinking maybe F12 but I'm not a professional grader at all. Thanks!

I'm not sure that we have any professional graders here BOJO, but there are quite a few folks here who are pretty darn good at it (and could pass as pros).... I am not one of them, but when one does come bumbling along, tell them that this is O-117, if that will help them out any...

Well, with my post, a Pro still hasn't bumbled along, but in the absence of one I'll guess that VF25 isn't far off the mark.

with SuperDave, VF-25 looks good to me (possibly even a slide to VF-30).

Nice coin! (I like the CBHs!!)

Looks like a great coin to me. I am inexperienced at grading, but feathers usually seem to wear easily and they are still intact. I would guess VF.

The reverse is a little better than the obverse overall I would grade this coin at VF-30.
