I think I that coin needs some verdicare. Full diamonds, Minimum XF-45 possible AU-50. May be details if it doesn't clean up. Nice free coin!
Rest in Peace

Thank you all. Best news I've had on a post. I'm very new to coins. Sure built a fire under me to talk about and look at all the coins I can get my hands on. I was given 3 of these this being the best to my eye. I'm just going to post the other 2, y'all know way more than I. Btw, thanks to staff for moving, I'll pay attention.

Any chance of a larger close-up of the obverse? Sorta looks cleaned to me as well.

4 diamonds so at least EF-45 and possibly AU. The photos need to be larger and sharper to tell what is going on with the surface. I see either grime or corrosion in spots which might make this a "details" coin.

Can you crop the photos closer to the coin, might help get it larger.

It's been a min. Trying to provide better photos, it's certainly not my strong suit

That's not helping much. Pics need to be much larger, and hopefully with better color.
Rest in Peace

Yes the color is more grey scale than copper . An obverse cleaning is the only thing that pops out at me .

Your right T-BOP it is in fact grey in color. I did nothing to change it photo wise. I'm so new at this in happy at the moment to have found something worth more than face of I have?

@Commander I see a beautiful headpiece with sharp liberty, gorgeous feathers and great ribbon. Very little wear. The wheat on the reverse is very fresh looking! All the legends and devices are a joy for the eyes. I really think your friend treated you to an X45 Indian. No details.
