Grade and Value my Pastor's Seated Liberty Dollar

Word is getting out that I am the resident numismatist at my church, so people are bringing their coins to me for evaluation. This one is beyond my experience, though, so I need y'all's help! Please place a grade and a value on my pastor's seated liberty dollar!

Looking at photograde and Coin Values, I come up with Fine-12, and $400. Please help me refine this!

F-12 Detail, perhaps VG-8 or VG-10 net. Maybe $275-$300 retail and $200-$225 if you're selling.

Of course most of the people to follow are far better than I at this.

 

Thanks Doug. In the PCGS online Photograde, the letters are unclear like this, even at F-12:

 

Vg10 - f12

 

thats interesting……the worn spots never really aged.

 

Those links help alot Doug, thanks. I think I agree, VG for this coin.

 

my first impression was obv:VG, rev:F
Love the crust on that one!

 

Interesting wear pattern on the obverse there, the center of the shield really decelerated the grade at an alarming rate. Due to the strong reverse (really nice even circulation wear) I'd anoint this nice seated dollar a VG-10

$300+ dollars strong

 

I would go VG on it and call it around $300 myself, a nice coin for sure.

 

I'd be willing to go with PCGS's F-12 where it not for that black vertical mark at 1:00 and the "X" at 10:00, as many sld's have greater detail than their weak liberty's point to. With the marks VG. But what are those marks?

 

VG-8 I'd say...
