  Although AU-50 to 58 is generally my "sweet spot" for early coins, here are some EF-45 graded pieces.

  
  

  I wish I could photograph this one better. It is graded EF-45, but the eye appeal makes it worth as much as any AU-50 or 53.

  
  

  The 1855-D gold dollar is very well struck for the issue with original surfaces. Personally I think that it is an AU-50, but it's in an EF45 holder.

  Liking the filter option they added to the set registry a while back. I could easily go see which coins I had in XF45. I do agree that it is a very pleasant grade.

  Always looking for an excuse to share this exceedingly wholesome, lightly circulated piece of southern gold:

  Great coins, all. Here's one I cracked out for a Whitman peace dollar album, other dates range MS62-65 in grade and are lightly toned, thought this would fit in fairly well without breaking the bank, with limited downside from freeing from the slab..

  I love the clashed dies on the Dahlonega dollar. It would make a great replacement for the Philadelphia issue in my type set.

  That would be a good idea until you find out what I paid for that coin ... WAY too much. I got carried away at an auction.

  As for the reverse, it's sharper than 99% of the Philadlephia Mint pieces I've seeh. Dahlonega, in certain instances, made better coins than some people might think
