It looks like it was cleaned, but overall it's a nice coin.
There is good details in the head too.

I'd say AU-50, maybe AU-53 detail and I agree it looks cleaned. The head detail is strong and the coin probably meets FH standards.

AU details - probably just shy of full head.

Strong AU but like everyone else, it does appear a bit too shiny to not have been cleaned at some point. Still, It's a great Type 1 and would be a good kickoff for your Dansco 7132. That is, of course unless you have a 16 to start out the page.

au-50......flat spot on the knee looks to be deeper, not just light wear

Beautiful Type 1 SLQ. To bad that the Puritans of the time complained about the naked breast.....
The reeding in the two pics look strikingly sharp and the details do jump out at you. I do see swirl marks in the fields where somebody did a number on it. I would still have to grade this XF/AU, XF40 to AU50. It looks like there is a die crack from the "Y" in Liberty to the drape over the shield....Maybe AU53


I have a 1923 SLQ that I will post later on for everyones opinion. I know it is almost BU but won't give anymore details.

My guess is AU details cleaned, from NGC and original from PCGS.

The coin has AU50 and AU58 details. If it graded problem free AU50/3.
