Possibly dipped to remove toning but that's been on my mind recently and I could be just seeing things

AU-50, unsure on a light cleaning/dipping.

Wow, you guys are harsh.

And letting a weak hair and cap distract you from the completeness of the talons and neck on the reverse. This is a classic example of the conundrum of only one side of a coin wearing. Since that is intuitively not possible, you have to think harder.

If the reverse is AU55, how did the obverse wear to XF? It didn't, that's how. This one is no worse than AU50, possibly 53. I don't believe the surfaces original, though.

If submitted do you guys think this coin would come back "cleaned"?

Not positive from these pics but yes, I think they would default to "if there's a chance, we Details it."

I would say AU50 does look possibly dipped/cleaned

AU53 maybe 55. The washed out surfaces may indicate a dipping
