F-12. Not a full E Pluribus Unum but some decent hair detail by the neck and arounf the ear. Maybe F-15.

A solid F-15. I'd be happy to buy it. Weak reverse is due to good obverse IMHO. I love Bust coinage!!

I went with F12. The drapery lines are lacking a little too much detail and there isn't enough detail in the hair for an F15 in my book.

I'd go with F12, a very pleasing and nice coin.

I think in the real world it would sell as a VF-20.....

I gotta go vf20 on this one too.

It's difficult to get a great strike on these old ones - the size alone makes it hard to get a good strike, if one area is strong in the strike, you usually pay for it elsewhere. That is a dam nice looking coin.

Very nice piece! I have GOT to get an old piece of bust coinage!

Solid F12 with a shot at F15. Definite ACG EF40.......

Vf20.

Keep in mind strike on these coins.

Anacs graded it F-15 no net.
Thanks for the feedback.

ANACs got it right.

I voted F-12 but I always seem to grade these coins a little lower than they should be. I think it's because I expect the detail to be finer than it really is on a coin with a little wear.

I say F12 but I ain't to proud of my grading skills of late

Grade the coin.
