Edited to add:
I cracked from an ANACS slab to put in my dansco. It was not net graded, nor does the coin have any issues.

F15 but it has excellent detail for the date with exception of the horn

I'll go along with the Fine grade. The gleam in those spots makes me wonder if it hasn't been polished at some point.

Interesting coin... some detail where one would not expect it due to overall wear.... 15 to 20 I would say. Cheers, RickO

F-15 right now, F-12 on a bad day.

One of my favorite dates to hoard!

I would say Fine -15, but the date is really strong so thats a plus. I have seen worse in vf holders , but for me its a fine.

I'll go VF-20 on the coin. Problem is, no one will probably pay VF money for a coin like this without the horn; even if the rest of the coin looks like a solid VF. I like to buy branch mint coins like this as Fines, since there is such a quantum price jump between Fine and VF. I'm sure that I would want more than Fine money, however, once I went to sell the coin.
