This was a recent pick up. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it in hand. To my amateur eyes, the surfaces look almost proof like for the type, even though I know it’s not. Great strike too. GTG if you’d like. Almost the weekend!

Flash! great lookin BH! Early strike?
Yes. Quite Flashtastic. Early strike could be it.
I’ll wag a 55.
I'll go with AU55 too due to the hairlines and great luster. Too many hairlines to be 58, but they might have liked it that much.
Nice looking coin. High AU.
AU55 seems about right as in the old ANA cert split grade days this would be a AU53/AU58 since there's less rub on the reverse.
I would guess 58, looks like it still has plenty of luster.
Beautiful BH! Lots of lines - AU55
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Hairlines galore on the obverse coming through loud and strong. With that said along with the wear I think will hold it to a 53.
I go against the concensus and say 63

55 camp here.
Nice luster and very good strike on an early die state. Too bad she has a taste of the scruffies.
Still nice ... 53, shot 55

As usual great guesses. She’s in a 55 holder. Here’s the TV. Happy Friday, Enjoy the weekend!
Very nice coin.... That one would sure get my attention at a show or shop. I would say AU55... The pro's and con's seem to balance at that figure. Cheers, RickO
I see it as a 55.
Very nice
