These pics just don't give me a good sense of the actual surfaces.

I'll go 50, unless PCGS says it's a weak strike, but it looks like teeny wear all over.

Oh yes, very nice eye appeal. Love the toning.

I agree with Coinfrog at
EF-45.
Blotchy tone in the fields may well be hiding tiny nicks and scratches which are very difficult to nearly impossible to find with on screen pictures.
Cameo toning on the high points of the design both sides, also makes on screen grading somewhat difficult.
The TPGrader has the advantage over us, by being able to examine it in hand, using light from advantageous angles.
Nevertheless, obvious wear on the high points helps to give the game away, hence the grading that Coinfrog and I have come to.
PCGS have a pretty good reputation, but I suspect that they may have graded a little higher.
I prefer to grade my own coins when I need to, and not submit.
