I don't think it will straight grade.

The surfaces on this one seem like a chemical dip that has been retoned so I'd go UNC details - Altered Color.

Would love to see this one in hand--in a perfect world. Hint of a woody (looking past the toning).

looking at the other coins you posted I'm seeing some similarities in the toning. quite possible they were improperly stored rather than cleaned. I'm going with UNC details

I really don't think those images are clear enough. I think I managed to take some better ones...

Likely it's been target toned. Great piece otherwise, Choice Mint State.

Looks like album toning to me.

MUCH better pictures! Thanks for using a white background, now I can gauge your white balance and coin color better. Another...

If it straight-grades, I'll say AU-58, but I just can't see this worth sending to a TPG.

I think this coin has been messed with. How is the luster?

I have been going through hundreds of rolls of bu coins and have seen several with this toning this toning in just about every year since 1950. I am not saying it's definitely original. I am sure PCGS will tell you. I would say ms-62 red brown. I would love to know for sure if it's artificial it sure would help me when I try to assign a grade.
