can't add much on this one because I agree with the above grades. I usually look at the coin and go right to posting my first impression before even reading what others have already said but for some reason I saw the grade in the next post so went ahead and read the other one as well and we all 3 agree on the grade because that is exactly my first impression when I looked at the coin as well
Coin could grade between VF20 to VF35, although it appears to have been cleaned at some point. The fields have a consistent pattern on the reverse which indicate possible cleaning below the relief areas that could only be obtained by embellishment.
Bryan, I know exactly what you mean, first instincts and all. I do that a lot too. From what I know from series to series, this one screamed VF25. I love these dealers who grade coins VG9, VF27. I guess there is some validity to it if you think about it.
