gorgeous color

 

Im seeing lots of wear, especially on the obverse. The color could have helped but my gut is saying XF45.

 

+1

 

Nice colors... but XF40 max. There’s too much wear and not enough remaining luster for an AU grade.

Bit of a weak strike on this one too. The blue toning wraps around the stars that aren’t fully struck though, so I considered that a net neutral.

 

It may have been graded higher because there are features that are fairly nice looking, especially on the obverse, but I have to say from your pics, the reverse has wear that reminds me of a F12. No offense meant. It has gorgeous color and the obverse is quite attractive.

VF-35 *

 

No offense taken, weak strikes were common with these. I’ve bought several examples of this type for my Seated Quarter set, so I went with color and eye appeal over technical perfection (fully struck stars and motto, etc.) on this one.

Here’s some others W/ Motto.

 

Xf 45 and pretty

 

VF 20, lacks motto and details on Rev

 

First impression made me think AU 55

Based on the other guesses (and taking a closer look), that seems to be high, but I’ll stick with that guess.
