Toning always confuses me when grading. Two questions:
1. What grade would you give the coin?
2. Do you like the look of the coin?

AU

Possibly too much chatter on the portrait for my liking. Could be the imaging.

Is it lustrous?

Lustre under the toning.

AU by wear but excessive marks for the grade on the obverse.

Very hard to tell from the image I am seeing... It's not unusual for .925 silver to have this type of color.

The pictures make it look very dull, almost as though dipped and then retoned. It has that monotonic look to it. Check the AU50 1854 on the pcgs pop site. This looks less than that although I would give it the 50 also.

AU Details - Cleaned

Better pictures might change my opinion.

I also see cleaning especially on the obverse. I think it would go details grade.

The coin in its older ICCS flip. I was thinking AU also.

My first thought was AU.

Second thought?

That ICCS was tough on it.

Coin has good detail, especially the reverse. Certainly better than any of my poor Gothic florins.
