It looks like a DETAILS (dipped) coin to me. Why? Toning looks even to me; nothing different in the protected areas.

One thing with Vette is his coins always look better in hand. His pic taking skills leave a bit to be desired. I bet it will look way better when you get it. Post some pics after it gets to you.

 with panzaldi Quote: the lighting is too strong and washing out the surfaces You can even see that some of his circulated coins have a very bad white balance. While his pictures appear to be detailed, I am guessing that he is using a very aggressive (read auto) flash setting. It appears to be a single close light source, as opposed to indirect of offset lighting. Just trying to get my photography skills to an acceptable level, and lustrous coins are giving me the most difficulty. Finding that combination of lighting and camera settings is not fun, and every coin photographs just a little differently - or at least enough to where I am keeping a notebook of settings, lighting, etc. I think it is an MS coin, no details grade, personally.

Seller's pics suck... Nice, original coin
I have dealt with Vette in the past, and actually I think "vette" is a member of the Omaha Coin Club.

Last coin I bought from him looked like a high VF-low XF 2 cent, came back in a NGC holder at AU53BN, can't beat that.
