Had this coin for a little while and I'm going through and making a photo inventory of all my Indians so I thought I'd get you gents' opinions on grade. I like this coin - hope you agree. A lot of flow lines on this one - worn die? Cheek looks kind of tough too, but I don't see any wear.

Late die state, cracks at K3 & K8 reverse leaf->rim, and an obv die crack between ED and ST that runs from the nose to the rim. Die scratch or very heavy die polishing line below ear is pretty neat feature (at least, it looks raised on the coin, not incuse like a PMD scratch would be)

AU58, a few minor hairlines, a little light circulation rub on rev. wreath high points (ribbon top, left wreath highest points of upper leaves) but the scratches on the cheek as seen in the first photo might details the coin at a TPG. Tell me it's an MS62-MS63 and I won't argue too much, depends on the grader and their mood, if they see this as cabinet rub that's slightly altered the toning on the high points and not actual circulation wear.

first point...way too much glare from overhead light or flash masks our ability to assess the surfaces accurately.

the second reverse photo does look like it might have some light wear. without better photos AU58 or MS63. if it is MS then color would either be BN or possibly RB but again the lighting prohibits a good call on that.
