After looking at more of these last night, they're all over the map as far as grades. It looks like many suffered from a weak strike. This one looks fairly well struck so I'll still say 58, but low MS wouldn't shock me...

AU58. Really neat token that I haven't seen before.
Take a look in your Red Book in the half cent listings; that listing anomaly is the major reason for the unusual (& artificial?) price support that this token carries in relative terms when compared to similar rarity Hard Times tokens.

BTW: Great strike on the eagle's head and beak which is weakly mushy struck on most examples seen.
