Nice coin with lovely original toning but not MS I think. The flatness on Liberty's breast and the obverse stars could be strike weakness but the discolored areas in the reverse fields look like friction. I'd say AU-55, possibly AU-58 based on these images.
From which dealer did you buy it?

I'm trying to talk him into cracking it out for a DANSCO 7070! Especially since the coin was undergraded to begin with. I think it's a no risk move. Come on folks let's give him some encouragement! ;-D

Yeah, it's nice Brian and a solid strike too.
Just enough wear to keep it from 58.
