<p>[QUOTE="buddy16cat, post: 1564347, member: 37356"]I know from reading the website I posted and the Redbook, it is at</p><p>least fine since LIBERTY is separate from the coronet and the cords are present. IF you notice though, it is hard to get a close view from the picture since when you zoom in on computer pictures they always become blurry. I have pretty good scanners and typically use them since the pictures are larger automatically. I think it takes some keen eyesight to determine fine details from a picture taking a few feet away rather than a direct scan since the coin is directly on the scanner, kind of like a camera but directly on the coin with a zoom. If you look very closely without zooming there are hairlines present. There is also light reflected on the rims but most like a a rim dent because this is a circulated coin and coins hit each other. I don't see any heavy corrosion. I think though I will grade this for myself though but thanks for your opinions but opinions are become too varied that it is becoming noise. I would say it is at least Fine maybe VF because as cowboy stated which is correct, the VF grade is determined by hairlines but also hair cords which are hard to see in this picture because it isn't close enough.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
