Newby Numis Valued Member United States 58 Posts	Posted 06/18/2021 12:42 pm Good Afternoon friends, I have been trying to grade this and feel it is somewhere between an 8 and a 12. Don't just want to split the dif and call it a 10. What do any of you think. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/18/2021 1:02 pm Personally, I'd grade this VG-08. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 06/18/2021 4:14 pm VG10 sharpness, but I'd bet it down to VG08 due to surface preservation and a couple rim bumps. Also, can't make out what's going on above the arrow below Liberty feet. Lamination issue? Almost looks like it's visible on the reverse as well running diagonal through the A in AMERICA.

Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5189 Posts	Posted 06/18/2021 6:55 pm I'd say VG-10. Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7454 Posts	Posted 06/18/2021 7:51 pm I'm at VG8. The weakness on the left side of the obverse keeps me from giving a 10. Report this Post to the Staff

MisterT Pillar of the Community United States 1608 Posts	Posted 06/19/2021 3:52 pm I don't see a problem calling it VG-10, but I think calling it F-12 is a bit of a stretch. I like the arrows and rays. Report this Post to the Staff
okiepb Pillar of the Community United States 1211 Posts	Posted 06/19/2021 5:36 pm I agree with MisterT and think it's a solid VG-10. I don't think there is enough detail overall for an F12 grade. Report this Post to the Staff
