Gramps left me this wonderful 1889-CC. It's not the best condition, but still ends up being my most valuable coin. I'm thinking VG-10 or so. What do you think?
I'm thinking it could go VG08 or VG10, but since it's a pretty rare coin they might give it the benefit of the doubt and make it VG10. Nice coin; sentimental value makes it priceless.
I think you hit the nail on VG10, after comparing a bunch of coins with a similar grade from PCGS or NGC
The incompleteness of the rims on the obverse limits this to VG-08. You *must* have fully complete rims to reach VG-10.
