Funny how cameras can make some things stand out. First, the color is almost there on the photo but the coin is a slate grayish with underlying luster. Second, it looks baggy but it isn't visible to maked eye. Third the black streaks are there but not as bold as shown on the photo.
Guess the grade and does this look cleaned to you? I say cleaned a long time ago.

Nice coin and detail. Possibly lightly cleaned way way long ago, but nice enough to merit a pcgs slab

Can't judge luster on dull grey coin. Could have none or lots under toning. Well struck. See no wear. Looks dipped.
I would have guessed if surfaces not a problem then MS 64.
Try a second attempt at bright scan.

The coin is an MS63 and the strike is phenomenal, better than some 65s I have seen. Every star is perfect, not a weak one in the bunch. The reverse is almost proof like and a different look than the obverse. The color is a slate blue/gray on the obverse and white/black on the reverse. Cleaned? Yes, well maybe. Certainly not dipped but maybe wiped 50 years ago? Has just enough "skin" to make me wonder. Just got it Monday and This has become one of my favorites in my collection and I usually prefer gold!
Look below, I tired one more time to get the rev to link>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hope it works now.
Yes, PCGS.
Tell em the re-silver plate it.
On a darker thought,That coin has enough detail to make a good transfer die counterfiet.....look for others out there with identicle bag marks . lol
Great coin.Thanks for shareing
