I have her at AU-50. No signs of cleaning, and there is some cartwheel luster.

XF45, severely clashed. Too much wear on hair, and reverse numerals, to me. Might scrape out an AU50.

That clash is quite nice.

I would grade it AU-50. The clash marks on these coins is so common that it is almost normal. The mint had a hard time striking these coins, and the employees called them " the devil's copper." The completeness of the vertical lines on the "III" is a plus.

, the weakness in the hair is most likely a strike issue - the fact that you have defined lines for a 1865 is a plus. I would look at date, it is difficult to tell from the picture but you might have a variety (I think I see something below the 5 - could be my imagination).

@Kelly

There is an MPD right there. Bill Fivaz pointed it out when I showed it to him.
