Photographed it as close as it can look in hand. Off course there is more luster holding in hand, a still image can only show so much.

Thanks for the response...

    The lip scratch is not that visible in hand... and the long vertical scratch on the head is on the holder.

    Idk, first glance looks ms, then looking a bit longer i guess it could be a borderline 58. But ill stick with low MS.

    AU58 would be my guess. I'm a little troubled by the facial scratches though.

    I would guess 55.... That being said, on my screen, the picture looks like it is pure copper.... and I have a very good, 6 month old, computer. So, assume that is the lighting? Cheers, RickO

    Agreed Ricko.

    AU 58 maybe?

    58 or 61 depending on the time of day, temperature and barometric pressure in the grading room. I like it a lot.

    I'm with Lance on this one in that the coin looks too clean for the amount of wear while the central portrait marks looks fairly severe.
