New thread for this coin with fresh pics. How would you grade it? If I list this one for sale, any descriptors I should include? Would it be worth mentioning the older style PCGS slab? Thanks.

Looks AU probably a 53 or so. What is the black stuff? Crusty, good color, well struck are terms that come to mind when looking at the pics.

AU-53.

Some of the older PCGS slabs are undergraded by today's standards so it would be worth mentioning it.

Thanks for the feedback...sounds like this PCGS grade is pretty accurate on this one:

I do think the coin looks better in person. ;)
