Grade: VF30
Opinion: veeeery nice coin!

 

VF25

 

That is beautiful, but it may be details. A couple of spots appear as such. And the color - what is that?

 

What are you referring to? The darker spot on the reverse may be a shadow from my thumb?

 

I gave it a VF-35, but there a multiple spots that make it look like it has been cleaned. I was not willing to say Genuine-details, but I was asking. Your shadows are clear. Just wondering. What about the color? Whatever it is beautiful.

 

Will be interesting to see results.

 

I went VF 25

 

VF-35 ?

 

I meant to click vf-20 and was not paying attention. Oh well. I think it is a nice coin, I do not thing the hits on the shield would hurt it.

 

Vf -30 I'm feeling generous tough call between that and. 25 nice coin!!

 

25 IMO

 

There is some roughness in the obverse fields at 12:00, maybe details?

 

I'll post the answer before I head to the airport tomorrow!

 

I'm sure you are all just as surprised as I was on this one. One person correctly guessed "genuine-details" on the poll. I'm really not seeing it.

 

I guessed details due to the roughness. I finally got one of these polls right!

 

I was afraid it might be environmental damage that's why I said what I did earlier. I thought it had possibly been buried. Still it is beautiful and in great condition.

 

Definitely a nice looking coin regardless of the details grade!
