<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 1463445, member: 307&quot;]I agree with most everyone here. The coin has good detail for a F but it seems to have an incomplete outer edge to the shield. The shield edge is essential to a F grade. This is why some have said VG and they wouldn&#039;t necessarily be wrong in suggesting so. If you are a stickler for the rules, they are correct.</p><p><br /></p><p>The leg wear is consistent with a F grade, but neither it nor the chain mail show enough detail for VF consideration even if you overlook the shield issue.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin points out why hard and fast rules make grading certain series of coins difficult. This coin is a borderline VG/F and it depends on whether or not you want to be generous or conservative as to which you think is correct.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would put this coin in a nice VG set. If F was my bottom grade, I&#039;d pass on this coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
