[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1295769, member: 26302"]This is a poster child while only looking at one part of a coin to grade is the wrong way to do it. These things are listed to give beginners a hand, but there is nothing magical about the "WE" on this coin, or a buffalo's horn, or LIBERTY on a shield or headband. The overall coin has to be looked at to determine a grade. The problem is there are some grading guides that say these things HAVE to be there, so you have some collectors who insist they HAVE to be there to grade. Therefor, for US coins at least, you may have a hard time selling it at the true grade of the coin. I agree with Mark, this coin is at least a fine. Chris[/QUOTE]
