    Nice strong strike on it. Another pretty one for the grade. The more I look at it, the more I have to have it in VF, so VF20.

    Lincoln looks a little worn, the wheat ears are starting to blend. I would put F15 at most.

    I posted this coin on another forum also. The grades over there vary from VG8 to F12. Here it is more like F15 to VF20. Just goes to show how subjective grading is.
    I might just average it out and called F. That's a step up from what I thought it was.

    I think I more shows how difficult it is to grade from a picture and especially those pictures.

    I'd definitely grade it less than a VF...FINE-15+
