from everything I have read on grading (and I'm certainly no expert) a scratch doesn't affect the overal grade of the coin but would be noted in the details....

For me the luster looks so different between the fields and the details that I would put this at EF-AU

NGC and PCGS a scratch will give a coin the detail or genuine label which is a coins kiss of death.

So best not to have it graded but list as EF-AU with the scratch noted? I'm more to the AU side, but I would like to hear some more opinions. Thanks for your help on this one!!

Thank you to everyone for their input on this one. I listed it as an AU, noting the scratch.

I don't think that any TPG would treat that as a scratch.

My opinion might change if the luster is better in hand.
