I think the amount of wear is closer to XF, but it's way above average appeal for the grade, so I'm going with XF45.

Beauty of a coin BrickellCat.

My '68 doesn't look that good.

AU-58 at least., one or two diamonds showing.

AU-58, with a Reverse die on its' last legs... Nice die cracks, and a beautiful little Indian

A close up of an interesting die crack on the shield. Notice how it extends from the rim all the way through the shield.

Any chance there is a fine die crack connecting the bases of 186 in the date?

No evidence of die cracks on the obverse.

Sorry but I still see the die cracks when I see your original. And it is a Snow 10 if these are on the coin. I put the green lines on this pic - double check for me about a faint crack in these locations.

Based on the first pic, this one has a lot of luster.
Since the diamonds aren't fully struck up--I'd give it a 55.
Snow-10 has an MPD in the pearls, which I don't see on this coin.

had to see the closeup DVCollector! And, thanks for posting these great pics. Nice visual appeal on this one. I think it is a 55 but that it would get bumped up to a 58 based on the attractiveness.
