I'm on the fence with the rest of you. AU detail, but may be shy on the luster. It has very nice original surfaces, so I'm going to guess they gave it a pass and called it AU-50.
Rest in Peace

I think there is just enough wear on the high spots to hold it to XF45.

Sweet coin!

I'm going with EF-45 (just due to the obverse high points (bust & thigh) wear; the rest of the coin is AU)
Rest in Peace

XF-45/AU

For clarification, because of the darkness. The detail is probably easily AU.

XF-40
I would like the pole to show a bit more three-dimensionality as it crosses the arm.
The reverse is outstanding!

Don't think it quite hit AU. I'm hopping on the XF45 train.

I'm in @ EF45

Edit - Ha you posted it as I was grading it, I agree it's a bit better than the label! At least you didn't get hit with details and a cleaned notation.
