Guys/Gals, I'm stuck between what to call the grade on this piece. The image is old therefore the grainyness, but I think the detail still holds for you all to give your opinions.
Also, guess the Overton variety.

Looks like an F12 to me.

I like it,

F15

O-103 R-1.

I would say that F-15 would be a consensus grade although these always come weakly struck in the centers and therefore it does have claims to a VF grade.

IMO, F15.

I'm in the 25 camp. --Jerry

I'll give it a VF20.

I call it F15...maybe a weakly struck VF20...either way nice coin!

THanks for the comments guys.

At first when I saw the obverse I was thinking VG/F.
But then I turned it over and it had a lot of wing detail.

The consesus here seems to go to borderline VF-20, so that's what I will stick with.
