Might be low end MS but judging by the bottom picture, there seem to be too many marks on the obv, so I'm going with AU55-58.

Flat Rim (not rounded), sharp (seemingly squared Legend edges) are PL indicators.......PL 63 for me. Dies over poished inside effigy.

I was just looking in Trends to see what difference in value from MS60 to PL62-64. 1957 1WL in MS60 is $32.00 in the early PL singles section 1957 1WL PL64 is $1650.00. This must be a misprint?

I would be leary about calling it prooflike, there looks to be a nasty scratch below the date and like wise below the A in Canada that is an automatic downgrade of at least one grade.

This coin is a One/WL, and graded (at least by me) to be MS-64 which currently is listed in trends at $500.00.

Still a good coin no matter its shortcomings...

The term "Proof Like" deals only with the way in which the coin was struck at the mint and as to how it was (in theory) handled and has nothing to do with scratches,marks etc.
