Came in the mail today. Image is only OK. I'm thinking AU cleaned. Since I only paid gold spot for the coin, I'm happy.

At this price, it would be a good purchase even if it were holed. But I think AU is a bit of a stretch. The reverse is much nicer than the obverse, but the cheek scratch along with the field hairlines and other minor problems, would put this coin in the about XF range, or XF details, cleaned etc.

That being said, I'd gladly pay a 15-20% premium over your buyprice if you ever grow tired of it.

Didn't you tell me it had been listed in some strange category, like US Morgan dollars or something?
