Dealers grade on this was AU58 BN. In hand LIBERTY and 4 diamonds are very visible. I can't seem to get a good picture of it.

I think the AU58 BN grade is accurate. I do see slight rub.

Hi Shatsi

These coins cannot be graded without being able to see the details very clearly,, some of them exhibit weak strikes which are often mistaken for wear.

If you trust the dealer then its acceptable to belive the opinion, but I suggest buying these coins at least 1 grade below estimated if the coin is raw.

Looks like the right grade to me. I'm pleasantly surprised that this coin wasn't sold as a "brown unc."

I bought it, but if I find a nice colored Indian Head I'll replace this one.
