it has the "NCS" look. i've been looking at many $5 and $10 Indians lately, trying to find a nice type piece of each somewhere between AU55-MS63. there can be quite a bit of difference in color.

Kind of dull.

It's the scanner, no matter how my wife tried to tweek the color it just didn't come out right.It is a nice red gold with plenty of luster.

I would say yes then. Why is it graded only MS60 if it has good luster and color?

It's not slabbed (yet) It is from a local small town dealer.
Coin has great eye appeal and luster .So should I gamble?

Whats the gamble?

Looks to be better than MS60. If you like the color and luster, I say go for it.

I was gonna ask if it was imaged on a scanner or with a camera. My scanner washes out all of the luster like that.

Looks like a pretty little coin.

This coin has been obviously cleaned and I would stay away. Look at the discoloration from the cleaning that goes inbetween the stars on the obverse and up to the lettering on the reverse. If I was to buy this coin I would treat it as AU cleaned. If it were me and I wanted just one $2 1/2 from the 1890's I would opt for one with a low mintage as they don't really cost much more. mike
