Just picked up a large letter 1858 FE! Grade? Value estimate?

It's a fine FEC in the high VF to low EF. The tail feathers make me want to say EF but the dings on the obverse sorta drag it down a bit IMO. I love these coins though... Too bad they were a two hit wonder.

VF30. Too much wear to warrant an XF40 IMO.

This is my VF with details grade(corrosion). Compare the pics looks like yours will be at least VF. More detail in your coin.

Thanks guys. I was thinking VF-30 too. It might go a bit higher if it weren't for all of those hits in the obv field. Paid $28.

Yeah on second thought I would peg this a little below EF.
