Good Call Jeremy. But it is Marty so I'm betting AU58

The only way that coin is getting an AU58 is if I submit to, well you know where!!!

Some cameo contrast, and light even wear.

I don't think it's quite there for AU. I'll go EF45.

I would grad it as a poor - 1
while most would think a coin like this is useless , it's a great candidate for my 'ugly type set' All coins in my ugly , or beat up , or damaged type set must be of low grade and have problems . The rules are that I must purchase these coins as is . No fair intentionally abusing the coins . There should be a registry set for worse looking type set going . To date I have 8 or 9 of these beauties , uummm , I mean uglies .
p.s. it's also a low cost set to complete , and a fascinating set to pass around at coinclub meetings for comments and show and tell
