Do you have the coin in hand or is it based on pictures? Looks like it is in some kind of flip, ICCS?

From the angle it is taken at, I would worry that it has been cleaned or something. Also looks like a big rim nick @5 o'clock.

With such a small reverse, I would worry that it is a counterfeit coin.

With such a high value item, would not buy site unseen/examined.

Way too many marks for anything UNC ... maybe details with damage/possible cleaning.

Not able to take it out of the flip for pictures?

So far MS60 or 61, but with bad rim hit and fingerprints.

I agree with purelywasted:
If buying, need to examine this one in hand.

If that's an ICCS flip, I would venture an AU 55 - rim damage or Ms 62 - cleaned/rim damage.

Looks to me to like it was cleaned and retoned. Rim damage is also a problem. Unc Details.

AT first glance it looks really nice. Nice strike, maybe MS64.....then all the little issues become apparent, as previously mentioned. I'm not a fan of the russet toning on the reverse. I'm thinking MS62 with a qualifier.
