Looks like O-113.
Hard to tell the luster from the pics, but if it’s there, I’m gonna say AU55. If not, 50-53.
Let us know how you do.

First impression was AU55, but after looking a little longer, I think closer to AU50.

55, nice and clean.
My same thoughts for this one.
53 here.
I was thinking 58 or better, but I'm usually the optimist on how coins will grade, which doesn't work out well when I buy....Nice original surfaces, too bad you have to get 58 or better on these for the good money.
I think 55.
Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value. Zero. Voltaire. Ebay coinbowlllc
55
I'll go 50.
Nice coin!
Everything is all right!
55

55 Seems right, though a 58 wouldn't completely shock me.
Go with your first impression.
55+ shot 58
53/55.

My guess would be 55... though looking at the reverse I was leaning 53.... but will stick with 55 based on the obverse. Cheers, RickO
53 based on rather lusterless fields, possibly from the old dip.

AU55 wear on the curls. Nice coin!
58,
Had one just like it, your is a touch nicer, mine 58'd (was expecting 55), yours should also, unless there is something I just cant see not having in hand.
Dipped AU55.
55..... it does look dipped.
But it has excellent detail remaining.
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

My first impression was 55... the more I looked at it, the more I was convincing myself "58" . Whenever I convince myself a coin is "58" I try to make a mental leap in my head about low MS grades... lol!!
I'll go with first impressions... 55!

I would have graded it AU-58 sharpness, but cleaned. The surfaces appear to have been dulled by something more than just a dip in a mild acid tarnish remover.
