    Would like opinions on the grade. Bought this for myself for Christmas. Pics aren't the best.

    Nice coin. I'd say VF20-ish.

    I'll go with 35 but the obverse image makes it tough to decide.

    Hi! Merry Christmas and congrats on your nice “gift”. Of possible interest, it looks like Overton O-112, R2 ... or possibly
    O-112a if, in hand, you can see “a die crack (which) circles through leaves to top of UNITED ST” on the reverse.
    I agree with Lord M. that it’s a nice, strong VF, maybe 25 or even 30, by the lights of the grading services. They seem to cut a little slack for earlier dates, esp. pre-1820’s. Will it be part of a date set, type set or just-something-I-like?
