I'm at 50 too. Could be higher if there is luster we're not seeing.

These are the sellers pics and I believe they're scans so there probably is some luster considering that the coin is AU-ish.

It's an O-112. I can't see enough detail to call an O-112a (R5).
AU 53 or better. Fantastic.

What part of the coin needs to be further examined to determine if it's an O-112a? I will see if the seller can get better pics before he ships.

O-112a, a die crack from edge below 1st 8 up through last 18 of date to edge of lower curl, inner point of star 11,across stars 10-8 and to cap then to star 7-6 to edge. These can be quite faint to the naked eye.

Appreciate all the opinions. Just one more thought; if you look in the bottom corner near the date, there are parallel hairlines. They're not too bad but is this cause for concern? The fact that the picture is a scan and the fields seem devoid of the same "black grime" that clings to the stars and devices may be a sign of cleaning no?

It's hard to call. I'd need better pics. This is the best I can do with limited photo editing tools. I'd ask for better pics.
