There's not near enough detail left for an AU coin , I really don't think it's even EF..
As far as detail goes the reverse does look about ef40 but the obverse is VF 30-35 ...
So I'm going to say it's a solid VF 35 coin , the reverse makes the grade for me ...

Yup vf35 for me as well. Definitely not enough detail on the obverse wings left in order to come close to AU. Sorry.

Thanks everyone for the comments. My skills for grading are nil. I was just using the PCGS photograding app for reference. I noticed a couple of you mentioned details. Do you all feel this is a details(cleaned) coin?

To be honest I'm not sure if it's a cleaned coin or not !!
The first two photos do make it appear cleaned but then in the last photo it seems to have a more natural color ...
So I'm not sure if it's the lighting Or what !!
Do you have any other photos ?

Not at the moment. I can try to put something together soon. Maybe with a more natural lighting.

If you paid AU money for this coin, Try to return it.ASAP

Good price. The thing about the PCGS photograde is that they do not take into account strike weakness, design modification (relief), and grade leniency for key dates. They just go off of the number on the label. I have seen VF/EF coins in the Photograde that look better than their AU counterparts. You may be better off buying the ANA Grading Standards from Whitman Publishing. |

TypeCoin - what you say is true, but I don't think any of your qualifications apply here, and it certainly isn't a key date.

Thank you TypeCoin for that info. I appreciate everyone's comments or opinions...some I may take with a grain of salt. But noone ever said that everyone on here was an expert.
