Looks like a low to mid AU. Maybe was dipped or it could be bad pics or lighting.

I think it would be ok to assume it was either dipped or cleaned a while back. Nice coin!
Rest in Peace

Quite an appealing AU-55. I really can't judge by those photos if it's been dipped.

I had to think real hard about this coin. The seller called it au58, blaming a soft New Orleans strike. But his price screamed f-vf. After a good long look I paid his asking price, $185

I'll go AU-55 to 58 . Scratch on neck ,corn kernels not precise ,slight wear on leaves . I don't think it was cleaned, but maybe dipped .
