Just got a new coin photo setup and have been playing around. Shot this one last night, and while this isn't perfectly what the coin looks like in hand (I believe some of the reddish spotting is actually a result of my LED lighting setup) it is pretty close.

What do you think this would grade? Any idea of the Overton number? I don't have the book :(

I will agree with VF-30, maybe 35 actually. More detail than I initially thought, nice clasp.

My Overton is packed away so I can't help with the variety, I would agree with VF-30.
