This one may not be easy... Especially if your new at grading coins. So give it your best shot. I will give no clue as if it received a grade or not...... PCGS slab.

I'll post the answer tonight sometime.. The first 5 people to get the grade right I will send an uncirculated roll of coins. And no editing!!!!!!!

The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

That us a very clean (reasonably mark-free) looking AU (AU55 is my guess).
