New Purchase - 20 Cent - Guess the grade and opinions

Just got this from the old ebay. I owned it for approximately 14 seconds before taking a hammer to the PCGS slab and putting it home in my 7070. This is the first 20 center I've ever owned and one of the very last holes in the 7070.

    I'll hazzard a guess.

    F12 maybe?

    Looks great, like a heavily circulated coin should look... crusty!

    People don't ever seem to get it that 'LIBERTY' on these is raised and not incuse. At least F12, and looks more a 15 to me. I've seen some in 20 slabs that look no better.

    [edit] Oh, by the way -- nice looking original gray coin. Good pickup.

    Nice F12...maybe 15.

    These dont grade like seated quarters...

    Congrats mirabela and coinlieutenant.

    This is, or rather, was, a PCGS F-15 which seemed about right to me.

    I've noticed that "Liberty" is the first thing to go on the 20 centers.
