AU-50.

 

These are some of the hardest coins to grade.

XF/AU.

 

They are tough to grade in the MS category. This one is not MS.

Thank you all for your responses- this coin has been in an an antique cardboard Christmas folder for decades- that is quite nice itself. I will post a pic today or tomorrow- I just wanted to know what people thought about the coin. JS

I would say EF-40 or 45. It is hard to tell from that photo. The piece very definite wear on the top of the eagle's wing on the reverse. That is grading point for the coins except for the 1908, which is always weak in that area.

 

Here is a 1909 quarter eagle that I would grade AU-58
