    Minimal wear on the shield and drapery, I'll say AU 58

    Typical strike so because of the toning it could be a AU58. Hard to tell from the picture. If there is no rub then I will go with MS 64 or possibly MS 65.

    AU 58, Nice coin with original toning.

    I agree this appears to be a typical strike and would grade it as a MS64. I don't see any luster or wear on the knee which is the most common place for wear.

    I'd say more a strike issue than wear...will go with 65, but not FH (from limited photo view)

    I'm on the fence with this one . I don't know if it AU or low Mint State . I'll guess AU58 .

    I also can't tell if it is an AU-58 or MS-63 to MS-65, either way, a very nice coin.

    Enlarging the picture, I see circulation marks. But then it's PCGS so it could be anything. Nobody is perfect. I go choice AU 58. Nice coin and toning.

    Nice toning, good eye appeal, I like it. TPG's tend to grade low on the Liberty. AU-55

    I'll take a copout at MS63

    Boy, with that toning, it is hard to tell. If a weak strike then I'd say MS65. I focus mainly on the shield and head, but I've seen weak strikes with those areas looking like wear. Tough one.

    MS 64 FH. I see a dent where the ear hole should be, three sprigs, and from what I can see I think there is a demarcation between the forehead and the hair.

    The reverse fields seem a bit scratchy to go for a 65, but the toning is just great.

    I certainly would not complain if this were one of mine.

    I think that’s definitely wear across her breast. Going with AU58/55. Very pretty.

    Wouldn't that design have looked nice as a silver dollar!

    AU58 FH I think I see slight ware on high points, and minimal circulation marks.

    I think a 65. Weakly struck like many 25s and it shows on the shield and the eagle's breast but there is no shortage of 1925s graded 65 and up.

    MS-63, no Full Head. There are a lot of small marks that preclude a higher grade. The luster looks good on the obverse. The reverse is more subdued from toning.
