AU-55
Seems AU53-55....
I'll go 55.
Looks like a low AU, I say pcgs called it XF45
50
50
XF 40
In the 3rd obverse pic it shows a scratch under th chin, is that on the coin?
if it is Im leaning torwards details
If not I'm in the AU58 camp
If I were to buy this coin it would have to have a CAC sticker, too many factors you just can't see in a picture

40 if I’m buying, 45 if I’m selling

Edit! Now that I'm observing this coin on my computer rather than a cell phone.
I'm changing my answer to 50.

Choice coin.

Wow! That has one heck of a lot more meat remaining than what I expected when I clicked the link to look at it!

Very nice coin, I’ll guess AU50

AU50
I like it as a 50, little to processed for 53. Hell of a coin

53
Possibly AU50. Lots of aesthetic appeal, the graders want to give it as high a grade as they can without embarrassment.
50 here.
AU 53

EF45 and deserving of a "+" grade and/or other superlatives.
50
45
AU-55
Traces of luster, 50 or 53. 50+ is my guess.
53
Guess's range from 35 to 55. Just goes to show how subjective grading actually is.
Im in the 48 camp
Some of the other guesses appear highly unlikely to be correct. But in the absence of a typo on the grading label, yours is the only one guaranteed to be wrong. 😈

Thats a really nice coin. Ill grade it xf 45 with the eye appeal of a higher grade.

AU 50
I am not a fan of that "look", which seems more or less reprocessed (unless I am misreading the images). EF-40 in my camp.

This coin is in a 35 holder.
Headed to CAC. Will post followup results.
Wow, I think the one person who guessed correctly should be awarded the coin as a prize. 😉

I graded the coin 45, but I'd be shocked to see a sticker on it.

The coin is either ridiculously under graded or it was netgraded for something not apparent in the photos.
Must not have any luster left in the open areas.
That would take it to 40. And I perceive what I interpret to be some luster.
I'll answer the question even though you didn't ask me.
I guessed XF40. The coin appears processed and unoriginal. Not a bad coin and I'd be fine owning it but it doesn't have the CAC look IMO.

I don't think it is a CAC quality coin.
Edit: @lermish hit it on the head!

And you can see that from the pictures provided?

Not targeted at you, but if the heavily hairlined PL MS65 gold dollar and heavily hairlined proof 65 trade dollar both had the “CAC look” as both stickered, I can’t imagine why this coin deserves numismatic leper status unless there is something not apparent in the photos. A dip isn’t lethal.
Based on the seemingly low grade, my guess is that in hand, the coin exhibits cleaning beyond what anyone thinks they might see in the images.
