looks to be close but no cigar??? Absolutely no signs of the F and only about 2/3's of a very faint G. Is this not enough to be considered a No FG?

    Sorry, the FG needs to be completely gone.

    However, thats a pretty cool coin.

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    Agreed as above. The initials must be completely gone.

    We have "Partial Drapery" Seated Half dollars so in the future we'll possible get "Partial FG" designations. It cannot hurt as that's what it is.

    Will not be considered no FG.

    I would not say that's no FG.

    The correct die (pair) has the bridge of the nose highly eroded.

    No FG is exactly as it states, no designers initials. weak and partial are common if you look at enough coins.
