I'd guess market-acceptable today.

I figured EF45. Opinions?

EF40 sharpness, cleaned; probably the obverse was wiped at some point -- the reverse appears more natural. It might straight grade.
Some issue on the reverse below the right wreath bow ribbon where the denticles have been damaged.

Still looks DETAILS to me, old cleaning or not.

I too believe it had an old cleaning in which it retoned, but I feel as if it will straight grade a nice XF45 to my eyes  |

Is your question about keeping it as a type coin? Then sure, it's a good looking example, but a TPG would probably say details. |

This was one I liked for details and the price was right for me. I think I'll hang onto it. Appreciate all the comments.

I'm at XF40 also. looks like the coin was wiped at some point. if cleaned it was a long time ago. most likely would end up in a details holder due to that right obv field but there is a chance it would go straight

I'm in very lowball. Even at EF40 I'm in pretty good shape. Details is a crap shoot. Coin flip to decide whether to send it to TPG. |

Even at straight-graded EF-45, best you could hope for, it is not worth the cost of submission.

I think this one will straight grade. Not worth sending in for slabbing though. EF-45.

I like it and I think the lighting makes it look worse than it probably is in hand.

Coinfrog is right - not worth TPG. I liked it and I'm a sucker for those Civil War era coins. (Yes, I know Beauregard didn't fire on Ft. Sumter until April 12, 1861, but the die was cast in 1860). |
