    I could not tell... But if I HAD to venture a guess I'd have to say that I think what others are interpreting as wear may not be with all the grunge toning. I'd have to guess low ms. Maybe ms63. If it is a bit of wear I'd have to say it's a nice au55 or so.

    Nice die crack too!

    Whatever the grade, the coin looks very pleasing and attractive. I’ll guess AU55 (edited to add: shot 53).

    Nice and original! AU 50

    AU53

    Put me in the AU53 camp. It might be a 55, if the luster, color and "skin" carry her ... love the look and the nice reverse die crack too.

    AU50

  • I see it as AU++ & eye appealing, I can see why you acquired it.

  • logger7logger7 Posts: 8,669 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Around AU, seems to me like a very weak strike.

  • justindanjustindan Posts: 773 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Great coin! Au55

    Curiously, what do you mean by “Around AU”? Do you think it could be anything other than AU?

    Hard to know, I would have trouble grading that one due to a lot of apparent friction and what looks like a poor strike to me.

    Make that 4/4…maybe I have a future at PCGS or NGC, LOL. I wonder if they have any women graders?
