    As you know, a tough coin to find nice, much less attractively toned nice. I like the look and what a nice strike too!

    That said, the only thing that concerns me (and it may just be the photo) is an apparent lack of luster. While I won't reveal the grade, I do wonder if that's not why it didn't grade even higher!

    Regardless, I really like the coin and the look, and I hope you enjoy it! image

    I like the look too as I've been looking at these for 3 years in XF45 and up and this one captivated me.

    It has luster just I couldn't get the color to pop... took close to 50 images just to find 3-4 that where usable.

    I'll post the grade below as this isn't a guess the grade thread.

    Very nice, great strike and color....and ORIGINAL, as far as I can tell. Powerfully struck star centers...which I really like, nice hair above the eye too. Good pickup. I have a sneeking suspicion that I have seen it before. I would be proud to own it!

    Definitely a keeper and a "stop-and-admire-me-a -while" coin. Looks original to me and well-struck. Even the center lines of the arrowheads are almost all there. image

    They NAILED the strike on the coin in the op, and that second one has great toning. Very nice.
