What does vf mean in coin?
"VF" stands for "Very Fine" condition in the British and American grading systems. A VF coin has about 75% of the original design remaining, with all major details still sharp. Minor details such as hairlines and feathers may be worn off. The VF grade is further subdivided into 11 (or sometimes 16) sub-grades ranging from VF20 to VF30 (or VF35), allowing for more specific distinctions.

It is considered the most common issue from this popular southern mint an very desirable as a type coin. A certified example in VF-35 should be in the $1,000.00 to $1,500.00 maybe more or less depending on the condition and actual grade. Coins from this Mint that have not been cleaned or damaged are getting harder to find.
