    well, since I tried the other one ... I'll WAG this one as a nice VF



    edited to add; nice VF to me = VF20 / VF25

    Definite choice VF, possibly barely EF. Most likely cleaned long ago and has since retoned. Very nice looking coin with those gold colored undertones.

    No grading service should have any business body-bagging or net grading this piece, in my opinion.

    I will go against the crowd. I do not like it. Likely cleaned and retoned in an unattractive (to me) way. If I needed it for a type set or a date set, I would pass.

    I don't have any quarters but want one just for the heck of it. I want a Bust quarter that is.
    I'd say going by type it's in the choice VF range. Could even be XF (if there is any luster peeking through, which I doubt it) as there looks to be good detail.

    As far as color, if the image is accurate sure a lot of folks like to see "Pretty" colors on any coin.
    I just don't think a pastel yellow should be seen on a well circulated coin, let alone circulated Bust material.

    Definitely VF35 all day long, perhaps XF40 on a good day. Of course cleaned but who cares, it wasn't harshly cleaned and they've all been cleaned. The yellow toning is a trip, I've never seen it on a circulated bustie. Not sure if I dig the color or not but I do like the coin image

    Appears to be B-8 which is a common variety which also was made in proof. I call this one VF25 assuming the line from the left wing up towards the T is a die crack or a clash. If this is a scratch, the grade drops.
    I collect Capped Bust series by variety in PCGS AU/MS grades.

    Above average looking coin for the type. Not perfect but nice.

    EF details but has been "warshed off" in the old-timeys and is retoning

    Still worth par EF money in a strong market (or selling situation), VF30 in a weak one image

    VF35+. But I'm not partial to the shiny spots in the left obv field and on her cheek. Signs of old cleaning. Still an attractive coin overall.

    Chemically damaged net F15. Sorry but yellow is not seen that often to get by.

    SWEET coin. I missed the original posting.

    I would've guessed 40. 35 on a bad day. Good job on the 45! image
