I'll let everyone else pick it apart.
I like the coin, and that really does depend on the price.
Based on the first pictures... AU... 50.....in hand, maybe XF45....Cheers, RickO
Going to go with XF details, looks like a big hit on the shield.

I have never seen an SLQ toned like that, so I'm not sure how it got this way. As such, I don't know if it would straight grade. If it did, it's a high end AU with a full head. My money would be on details.
AU58. I like the coin.
I don't like the coin.
It looks cooked to me and very unnatural.
I would be very surprised if it straight graded.
I may be wrong but without seeing it in hand, unless it was very cheap, I would pass.
The coin really shows the overdate well. The separation between the 7 and 8 really can be seen.
The grade is iffy. I don't know what to think about the "mottling" surface.

Certainly a nice find, congrats. Looks like it got pretty hot at some point.
A rare find and unique looking. Looks like it was in a fire. Au53 FH damaged
AU 55 with questionable color.

I agree with Full Head (FH). @Walkerfan I agree with Questionable color... does anyone else dispute FH?

I like the over date, do not like the toning, and I am seeing some type of hit on the eagle's wing
Like most others have noted, the overdate is clear, the diagnostics for the overdate are good (reverse E in the gown, floating left foot), but the color is a distraction. I've just never seen an SLQ toned like this and I don't like it. It would make more sense that someone tried to hide altered surfaces with that color, but the color in itself is not doing that coin any favors.
On a positive, I cannot see why anyone wouldn't consider this a Full Head coin. I've seen far less detailed heads in FH holders.
Results: They did NOT consider this a FH coin by giving it a designation of PCGS #5726 (and not #5727)... but perhaps because they also gave it a 92-Cleaned AU Details grade, it is not worthy of a #5727? has anyone encountered something like this before: a definite FH coin but does not get an FH designation because it is 92-Cleaned Details? Rules state the coin must be at least AU to be able to receive an FH designation - which it is. I am unsure if a DETAILS grade nix's the FH.

I'm pretty sure (but not 100%) that designations are not assigned to Genuine coins.
Correct, a cleaned slq will not get a FH designation.
