Just got this in the mail this week. Love original uncleaned silver. Complete bisecting die crack. Not sure if it's premium variety yet. Has a small mark on the reverse rim at the 7 o'clock position. I think PCGS will grade this no problem AU-55. Will update when I get it back.   |

AU-58. Possible downgrade to AU-55 because of the minor rim dings. I notice very minor wear on the high points of obverse and reverse.
The crack is pretty neat as well!

I can't really tell from the photos what color the coin is, but I don't like the pattern of the toning and reminds me of a Half Dime I have that came back cleaned. AU Details would be my guess. Nice die crack, huge really, epic! |

I'm in love with that coin! Problem free AU-55 is my guess.

I think its a solid AU-55, with a chance at AU-58. Very cool die crack!  |

Excellent detail but looks like very little if at all luster on this coin. That would be cause for concern concerning surface originality.
But if it was cleaned at one point it has nicely retoned so I'll go AU50

Au53/55 for me, beautiful bisecting die crack! Don't recall seeing one that traversed the whole coin before.
