    It looks genuine to me. I agree on the Good-06 grade and it looks high end even for a good -06. I think some album guys would try to sneak it off as VG

    Looks OK to me. On lower grades it's not uncommon for the D to be filled in as yours is.
    I's grade this 4+/shot 6 because of the heavy reverse rim wear. I can't see this coin ending up in a VG08 holder, VG06 seems highly possible though.

    The "D" is in the right place, but I would only grade it a Good-4 because of the weak rims on the top of the reverse. It's better than that usual AG-3 you see at most of the shows.

    Really nice looking of the date and mint. G-4, G-6 (me), even some VG-8's. Grade not important as this coin is probably going to be in a VG-10 2X2 and priced accordingly. LOL.

    The mint mark appears to be properly located... just worn as is typical for that grade.... Cheers, RickO

    Looks like a nice original 16-D to me. Much better than the usual AG's you see. I can see it as a Good-6.

    No signs of alteration around the mintmark and surfaces are original and undisturbed. That's two thumbs up.

    What Bill says, though it is a commercial Good-6.

    Looks genuine to me. I would say G06 at best. There simply is too much blend at the upper half of the reverse. It looks like a nice example.

    I'm no expert, but it does look genuine to me too. I agree with BillJones that it would only grade as a 4. Way too much wear on the reverse rims to be considered for a 6. Small chance it would even fall as a 3.
