Independent Grading Requested; 1821 Half

Here is an 1821 Capped Bust Half. For those of you who are familiar with me you know I collect these, and this surprisingly is one of the few ones I needed. I now have it and am requesting your keen eye and grading skills to assist me with assigning the proper grade to the coin. It appears to have been cleaned in the distant (50's or 60's) past and am sure you will take that into consideration.

All help in this matter will be appreciated

Nice coin....it is more centered than most I've seen...
As you said...more than likely cleaned...so I'll give a NET grade....I don't think it would grade over VG8.....but as QDB says....Grading was, is, and always will be a matter of opinion

I thought the hair had too much wear for the F grade.....and the bust...

Fine details, (harshly) cleaned, Net VG 10...Mike

 

Chuckle, I see I'm going to have to post a couple of other pics using lower lighting
