    My grade F-12, but it is a nice problem free piece.

    I concur wholeheartedly with Mr. Kiefer's opinion.

    I just bought something from that seller recently. Hmmm... what was it? I'll have to go back through my feedback...

    obv: detail is borderline VF, & i dislike the dentilation from 3:00 to 6:00. color is exceptionally attractive though.

    rev: detail is VF, dentilation a bit weak at 1:00, again remarkably beautiful color

    overall, i grade it VF- for detail, but i would net-grade it UP to VF, if the color is true to the digipic. these large-size quarters are far more scarce in original condition than what most people realize, and it is terribly easy to undergrade them due to the lack of original detail. they are heavily undervalued too. bust quarters & halves are the two series i most often disagree with in certified coins. i'll attrib later when i can get to my browning book.

    could you please indicate whether you are going to bid, because i might if you dont. thanks.

    My old 1815 Bust quarter was a PCGS VF25, but here it is for comparison, anyway. It had really strong die clashes, which I thought were kinda cool.

    F-15 would be my opinion.

    In between really, I would agree with VF- or F15, but it is so very close that I wouldn't bauk at a VF-20 grade. Nice coin though!!!!!image

    the pcgs comparison coin has weaker peripheries, but on the whole seems undergraded by 5 points.
