Chill out... I think that 3 people responding within 13 minutes of your first post is a lot. You can't expect to have people 24/7 on these forums.
Anyways, I think that the coin could grade MS64, if it is not cleaned. From looking at the pictures, it looks to me that the coin has been lightly cleaned, but I can't tell for sure.
Tell you what. The person guessing the proper grade will receive a coin in the mail (top secret what coin), in case of tie you can guess a number between 1-10 and the person getting the closest to the number I say gets the coin, it will be worth more than a couple bucks. J
The coin has the appearance of being cleaned. For example, luster looks dull except in recessed areas. It could be the image. Details-wise, I think 63 or 64.
Scan is hard.....I see 3 possibilities judging from trying to grade from a picture. Option 1: BB. Looks like it may have been cleaned. Option 2: AU58 (could be soft strike or light rub on some high points) Option 3: I think it is the strike and it may go MS64 if it doesn't BB
Really tough to tell from this scan - can't tell if the dark areas on the high points are rub or merely a result of the imaging process you employed. In any case, the coin has a nice strike and looks to have good luster, so assuming the coin is higher than a 58, whatever hits it has, especially on the obverse and cheek in particular, are really going to be what determines the grade. On your coin the face looks really clean, though again it is REALLY hard to tell for sure from this image - so I would say at least 63, shot at 64 - IMHO, if the coin was gem it would scream as much even in this image.
62? Can't judge luster from scans. What's up the lighter color spots between 12:00 and 1:00 on the obverse? They look like spots anyway based on your pics. Ok my guess is counterfeit!

PVC damage is what it probably gets bagged for but they might bag it for the cleaning too- either way I think it's a no grade. Not trying to be hard on you- just calling it as I see it.
I will guess MS64 if the luster is all there and it hasn't been cleaned....Good luck and if it grades MS63 or better and you want to sell it, I am a strong buyer.....I have sold all my dated gold and am now ONLY in generics in quantity......More needed.....

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
In todays market with gold at over $730 per oz... even the more common date double eagles are a bit on the up-side.... I'd say $1000??
