I'll say PCGS gave it an AU58. I'd call is 55.

EF 45

It's a bit more tricky with the unnatural colour showing in those pics..
It comes across as a little bleached in these pics..and therefore hard to see the necessary details in her hair with such a monotone colour here.

Very nice piece all the same..

Yeah... perhaps taking the picture directly under artificial yellow light wasn't a great idea. I really have to get a lighting setup configured one of these days...

Hey, as per requested, here are some pics under natural light:

The coin is quite dark in color, so to show the detail, I took my original pics under stronger focused light. There is more detail in the hair than can be seen here but everything else is pretty accurate.

I'll revise my guess to PCGS AU55, actual AU50

EF45 in my opinion, PCGS AU50 or 53.

I like Vicky's nose piercing. Looks good
