    How's the reverse? AU53.

    It appear's that coin has seen some light circulation, a tad dirty around the date ?
    I'll give it a AU 50/53 otherwise known as a raw "commercial unc".....
    just my guess...

    AU-50/53 or so..... looks like its seen a little too much circulation for AU-55 (specifically on the obverse)

    just reminded me of my first experience in a coin shop 30 + years ago,
    I asked to look at a coin just like this one, and looking at the reverse I read "FIVE D"
    So I ask the guy behind the counter..... What do'es "FIVED" mean ?.... (all one word) Haaaaaaa
    I made his day, he got a good belly laugh outa that.....

    Carry on......

    I'd say AU-58 myself, but there is so much "dirt" around the lettering, it concerns me. Was it cleaned?
