    Very nice strike, but I don't like the way the toning is
    traveling in one direction on both the obverse and
    the reverse.

    The obverse toning looks to be from northeast to
    southwest, and the reverse from northwest to
    southeast.

    As if it was maybe cleaned at some point.

    I can't really tell about the luster from those pics.

    If you send it in, be sure to drag this thread back
    up and let us know how it worked out.

    I see no rub - and I think its in the mid MS range 63-64 - its got a FH.

    Can't tell much about the luster or the surfaces from the pics provided, other than it does not look wholly original. Maybe if you took it out of the holder and played with the lighting a bit?
    As mentioned, I see no wear either.

    I agree. The streaky wood-grain toning pattern looks original to me. Often seen as such on early SLQ's. Maybe the luster is a tad subdued but overall a choice looking coin.
    That streaky toning would be the first thing to go if the coin was messed with. I don't think the coin docs duplicate this type of very slow toning that takes decades to form.

    Toning seems to be going in the same direction.

    Difficult to grade with photos. IMO, rub on the leg puts it into a 58 holder
    .

    NCS then crack out and re-grade? (PVC?)

    i do not like the color, strike looks good.

    coin looks great. I don't see any concerns.

    You sir did good with this one. High five!

    Your photos of it in the slab show luster. image Your original photos didn't show the luster as well.

    Great job!!

    You don't know how happy I am that I was
    absolutely and totally wrong.
