I can’t grade these, but 62.
Not from these photos.

Hard to grade these even in hand, but more worrisome to me is that well made fakes abound in this series.
From those grainy photos... I would assume they are intentionally that way and assume the coin is whizzed.

I’d grade it : In bad need of much better images.

No good gold grading here
From those images, I'd say counterfeit. I don't like the grainy surfaces, and something does not seem quite right about it. Another set of photos might lead me to another opinion.
Here's one in AU. It's raw, but I'm quite sure than it is genuine.
From these photos I would guess altered surfaces, different photos might yield a different guess.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
My guess would be AU-53/55.
I'm in the counterfeit basket. Why? Stars are not symetrical to edge (border) with some close and some far away. I think they should all be close.

Sold it for $375
Pass on it looks circ
I would not recommend buying these raw. Many are Counterfeit, cleaned, dipped, etc.
I could just be the macro image but the texture and color look suspect to me... FWIW... I purchased my Quarter Eagle Indian raw from a Forum member and posted images before sending it to our hosts. A few people thought it was counterfeit as well... but it came back straight-graded AU... If I were in your position, I'd send it to our hosts for verification of authenticity... can't hurt and it's only $38...

Need better pics but I'd guess AU55 possibly cleaned.

I can’t opine with those photos, sorry, these are hard enough to grade in hand, let alone lousy pics.
