    Nice clashes. It looks alot like my 61. No real wear, but no shortage of contact marks either.

    Here is a 61 I bought yesterday from the same lady.....180 Degree rotation.looks like it was D/S around the denicles, also the clash of RTY to the lower left of "1" is doubled.

    The coin in the OP looks anywhere between AU58-MS62. The luster looks good in areas but can't tell if it is subdued in other areas or if it is the photo hiding it.

    looks unc to me ... and realitively nice ... but I'm no 1$ gold grader ...

    I'd say 62/3

    Looks like a 62 to me based on the pics. I love Civil War gold. History in your hands.
