Just stopped by my local coin shop during lunch to say hello and found this little guy that just came in. $90, which is more than fair. Thoughts on a Grade? Issues?

Maybe too much wear on the reverse (left wreath) for AU? Still a pretty coin. I love buying from a LCS. No anxiety over what the coin will look in hand. Lucky to have several near me.

EF to AU50 Yes, a little more chatter on the rev. then what you would like to see. Very slight misaligned die on the rev. Die crack @ 10/11 O'clock on the rev? Die crack from the rim to the eagles beak?

I gave mine an acetone bath with a "very light" Q-tip rub. It really took all the gunk out of all the letters, date and the notches around the rim. I could see it cleaning (I don't like the word cleaning and coins in the same sentence), up your coin nicely. Very nice addition to your 7070! !
