    85-O is a fairly common date. I think the white balance might be off on the image... so, I really can't say anything about the color or surfaces, other than to point out the fingerprint on the upper reverse side. Looks like MS63 otherwise. ..

    Its not bad, need better images, or at least different angles to give you a decent opinion.

    Based on what I can see in the images, the coin looks approximately MS62.

    I would say AU55 but I tend to be more critical then most. The reverse looks nicer then Observe but has print upper left side keep eye on that. Price point better AU to MS minimum so as long as you like it then it’s a keeper. Congratulations on your addition.

    Based on the images, I'll wager 63.

    A very sharply struck AU58 that will probably end up in an MS62 holder.

    Bad lighting but it looks like a 63 to me. Maybe some DMPL characteristics. Looks like a finger print on the top of the rev.

    Looks 62, not sure what anyone is seeing as rub or wear. There are boatloads of unc 85-oh.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    I don’t know what you meant by “Maybe some DMPL characteristics”, but the coin doesn’t look PL, much less, DMPL.

    I would guess an MS62....as did several others here...some field chatter and a ding on the obverse between the lower hair and the star.... Cheers, RickO

    Generic BU. Going rate should be about $40

    A nice MS63 in my opinion.
