    AU. Weak strike which is typical.

    AU 55. Looks like it may have been dipped or wiped down.

    Looks like it's in an NGC holder. I'll say they straight graded it AU, though I'd say AU details dipped.

    It's been boinked for sure, especially the reverse, but I agree with @telephoto1 ... it probably straight graded at NGC as a low AU

    Clean up on aisle 5... But that was already accomplished. Better get me a bucket...

    AU spectrum- but this is the poster child for what is wrong and needs to be improved and corrected in numismatics. Sadly, this is not worthy of a straight grade even though I suspect it received one. There are those that are bold enough to ask why this has to continue. I have been a proponent of an original surfaces designation for over twenty years- and what we see here is a dipped out POS that would have been quite attractive if it had been left in its original state- sadly that is just too much to ask.

    Once upon a time... this was a nice coin and now it it a train wreck.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    I just want to say cleaned/modified in some way. Hairlines + unusually dull. Looks dipped.
