    Is that a hit on the cheek of the chief?

    Looks AU to me, but it's really hard to tell by a scan - even harder than normal for an incuse design like that.

    I hate grading these like everyone else but if I was forced to grade this coin from the picture I would say AU58 as there looks to be some wear on the feathers at the top of the wing or is that strike weakness? and the mark on the cheek really stands out in a picture this big but I think in person it would not be as noticable. Also there are many fakes in this series but I am sure you are aware of this. mike image
  • I collect this series... My opinion... AU55 to AU58
  • AU-58, very clean fields.

    I'll go with 55 by the picture, +3 if the luster is good, -2 if the fields are dull
