    Can't tell if it has good luster so I'll call it 50-53.

    it is a pcgs 58 and i liked it as a solid 55. the price it hammered
    at was very reasonable and my bid of 515 was beat.

    basically someone liked it at 600+ dollars including the juice.

    this is a common date and the competition was not there to
    bring the price higher.

    sharp coin.
