    I would think around a Ms64 by the looks of things. nice looking

    Hard to tell but mid MS, 64 or 5 with a very strong strike.

    Clearer images would help, but I’ll go with AU53.

    There's evidence of rub on the hip. At least it looks like rub in the pic.

    53

    AU 58

    I almost thought it was a lightly circulated Proof, until I saw the S on the reverse, and what looks like some die erosion or the start of a cud.
    AU58?

    I thought that it looked better than 61. I was surprised by the AU guesses. I see the area on the shoulder that some of you are talking about but I'm not convinced that it's rub. I'll have to take a closer look. I won the coin for free, so It's just a fun piece for me. It's only worth about 20 bucks anyway.

    That's why I said "at least it LOOKS LIKE rub" in the pic.

    Because it DOES.

    I would wager a 58 in a PCGS holder is worth a bit more than a 61!
