The coin has almost fully prooflike fields so getting pics was very tough and I'm bad at pics also! The coin has some very nice die cracks especially on the reverse. On the obverse the die crack runs between the stars at 10-11 oclock. The reverse pic looks a little wavy in the center due to crap on the slab surface . Impressions, grade opinions are welcome! I will post the pics of the PCGS slab later.

Very undergraded in my opinion! Thanks for input!

    Agree. Must be the pic. PCGS would never grade and slab a cleaned coin.image

    the play-it-safe grade to say is AU58. neat coin, could say AU62 just as easily, don't see any highpoint rub, the prooflike fields are very delicate, I've got a very similar surfaced 1877-S quarter eagle that I consider 58+ also

    The fields are highly reflective thus it accentuates the marks. My pics do suck! They were taken at an angle because the fields appear blackish from the reflection from the fields. It has not been cleaned! Did I say I sucked at picsimage
