First,

Nice coin! Only a light touch of wear. Somewhere in the AU-50/53 range seems right. The scratch above the ear hurts eye appeal a bit.

One suggestion. If you will flatten the staples on the reverse of the 2x2, it will protect other coins that are stored with this one. I use a pair of scissors to flatten the staples, and that seems to do the job.

AU53 maybe 55. if you can get your hands on some verdicare. i'd give her a soak to remove some of the gunk and preserve her. I like it as there are no rim issues or surface issues
