I agree the lighting makes it looked cleaned.
If it straight graded, AU55

AU Details, Cleaned. 1921 Peace comes satiny but this looks a little too washed out, hence why I suspect cleaning. It is a strong AU coin, though. 58 detail for sure.
AU55 if it will straight grade.

I was going to say altered surfaces, it looks unusual
