1866-s Seated Half, No-Motto Thoughts?



Been out of the game for a few years, just picked this up and wondering what everyone thinks of it.
Think it will straight grade?

I actively collect, buy and sell US minted Philippine coins from 1903-1945. I am interested in anything during this period, Albums, Proof sets, collections, original rolls and bags, Cullion Leper colony coins etc.
Also a big fan of liberty seated coins.

    Based on the image, It may get a details grade, possibly an old cleaning. Not bad overall though.

    I would expect a details grade, due to cleaning.

    XF details grade, but not awful considering this scarce variety.

    I think it has a good chance of grading as long as there aren’t hairlines from cleaning that are not visible in the pic.
    Pic seems washed out a bit. Coin tilted? Maybe a direct shot would help.

    Looks like a ground find that was cleaned from the pictures.

    Not gradable in my opinion.

    XF details cleaned.

    Thanks guys. I was also thinking XF45 probably going to get a details grade I would assume. Sending it in next week, will update here when I know.
