I'm thinking 58 as well, but agree it's almost impossible to tell fom these pics. Very nice coin!

My initial thought was AU, but I agree that the mottled toning is messing with my judgment. Not sure if it's a weak strike (common for New Orleans strikes), wear, or a combination of both.

I'm going to step out on this one and say MS64 or even 65. Here's why. I'm not seeing any signs of wear on the cheek nor the wing tips talons or highest leaves. Weak strike appearing as flat areas around the ear and breast.

After closer inspection of the left wing there does appear to be some circulation wear. I must retract my previous conclusion and agree with the AU58 troops

Flatly struck but there are traces of wear. Looks to be about AU-58.

I'm going against the grain here. 1904-O suffers from a very dismal strike quality on many die pairings so I'm calling this MS63ish based mostly on my gut.

Dave700 and SilverStackerKid nice call on the MS63. After seeing the slab photo, I am still be in the AU58 camp.
