    I will go with VF-20, but could see a 25 because of some of the additional details such as sandal /foot split and fairly clean fields. James

    A few rim dings, wear on E in liberty, some wear on high points. Nice Variety 2, VF-20. Thanks, and good luck.

    I'm lousy at grading from a photo, but think the above guesses would be in the ball park.

    It’s been the consensus so far; I’m at 25 as well.

    I would say VF-20. It’s decent example for a fairly well circulated example, but in my opinion, it’s not the most beautiful circulated piece. I prefer toning that is even.

    Playing the grading service “what if?” game, NGC may have given it five more points to VF-25.
