I would say F-12 on this one. Even though the rim has considerable wear, it still has strong lettering. Nice coin!

Im leaning more towards VG on this. For F I would like to see more face, hair and rim detail. Even though 'Liberty' is very strong on this.
For the reverse 'E Pluribus Unim' and the feather detail is about right for F.

Obv Face - VG-8
Obv Rim - VG-8
Obv Hair - VG-10
Obv Liberty - F-12
Rev E Pur. - F-12
Rev Feathers - F-12
Rev Rim - VG-10

I would say Net VG-10, but I grade pretty conservatively. :D It's definitely a borderline VG10/F12.

Seems better than VG to me. I think the dark tone is obscuring some of the detail. The reverse is closer to VF than VG IMO although the weak obverse rims would bring it down. I would not argue with a seller who listed it as F-12.

I don't have this type in my type set yet and I wouldn't be ashamed to have one like this. Surfaces look very original.
Rest in Peace
