AU-55
AU50
Too much wear for AU. I'd call it XF45 and community property.

Looks like nice honest wear for a XF-45

Low AU to these eyes.
I would grade it XF45...based on the excellent picture. Cheers, RickO

Going by the wear I see I’d say AU-50. I can’t really judge the luster from pics.
XF45 - nice looking coin

A couple of TVs from CoinFacts for reference:
XF45
AU50
The way the lighting hits the coin from about 9-10 o'clock makes me wonder if the rims haven't been played with. Compare the obverse rim at 8'oclock that has a wire edge.
The braids on the headdress show more wear than the top of the eagles shoulder feathers makes me wonder if this wasn't in a necklace at sometime in it's past. There are a lot of hairlines on the reverse.
If it's real and a possibility it's not,

AU50. The wear is a better fit for AU than for XF45. No luster, though.

Proud of you guys. I was certain I would have seen counterfeit.
Nice one guys….it’s a XF45 graded by PCGS.
Here it is…..
That is a very nice 45, congrats.
This is a 45 I'd send to CAC
Nice 45. Can you comment as to the luster? That's the one problem I had with it, despite it having the details of a 50.

Very strong XF 45. I am sure you could get CAC on it!
