It's all about the "WE" with this coin.(well not entirely)
I'm thinking a little lower.
VF25-30
Great rare date in super shape.

Can you post lighter pictures. The mylar is obscuring some of the details. A little more light or longer exposure would help.

Yeah, I can try later. Btw, I thought around mid VF seemed right.

The E of WE is not very strong. The horizontal and vertical lines in the shield are strong. VF demarcaction on the rest of the coin. So is this weak strike in this area? VF-30

This is a very appealing coin. If it weren't for that WE I'd call it a solid EF, with excellent original color. The stain below CENTS does not detract IMO. I guess it tops out at VF-35 since WE is not sharp.

Yeah, I definitely thought VF-35 to EF-40 when I first looked at it because I missed the weak 'WE'. By the way, this coin is up for sale in the for sale forum if anyone is interested.
