And reverse...

I'd say the obverse wasn't quite, but the reverse slightly better than...in balance about right I'd say! Looks possibly polished, though...on the pPod at least!

Edit: In fairness I'd say buffed, rather than polished!

The reverse certainly is, at the very least. E7 obverses are tricky - you can get an otherwise gVF with little hair detail, or you can get a gF with lots of hair but the rest less so. I'd rate yours F/NVF personally, so gF would be a good average.
