Those photos are a little too glarey (I know, not a word, but you know what I mean).
It does not seem to be an MS coin due to the wear on the eagles breast. I would say AU55.
The color is also a little worrisome. May be cleaning.

Out of curiosity - I see some hairlines to the right/behind Liberty - are they from cleaning or caused by something else in one of you all opinion?

AU-55. Perhaps once cleaned and now re-toning?

I'd agree with AU-55. Interesting toning.

AU55 and no call on the originality of the color and surfaces except that I would consider it questionable.

Agree, the colors do not look natural here, nor would they on an uncirculated example.

Looks like one of the silver coins I purchased when Spot was about $4.25 a ounce..

Broken-Coin...You are correct. This was in the lot I bought from you. I was going to mix it in with the rest of my 90% halfs but just couldn't do it with this one. AT or not I still like the look of it.
I am in the AU53-55 camp on this one.
