I am thinking Choice AU
the scratch near the date is the holder, not the coin

I had this one for quite some time as well but never posted for grading and show-n-tell to the rest of the class...

so many more coins to come now that scope cam moved in...

enjoy

Obverse AU53,Reverse AU55

That's where I am at, overall a great coin without a doubt. Love to have it for my 29th Century set.

I'm at AU50. Can't see the reverse getting more than that.

I see definite wear on the Liberty band (the edges are not sharp). The hair below the band, the lower row of olive leaves, the high points on the reverse wreath, and the denticles on both sides likewise show rounding and loss of detail. Overall I think an EF grade is appropriate, maybe EF-45 since there is decent remaining luster, particularly on the obverse.

Mostly :)

Overall, EF40 max.
Band below Liberty must be complete
and the hair above the forehead must show more detail
just to make EF40
A nice coin just the same.
