Wow , I don't know where you guys are getting AU details from with an obverse like that .

Could you post a couple more pictures please? Something about 8 inches from the lens if possible.
Obverse is XF+, might go AU, but, definitely cleaned.
Reverse...actually is AU maybe slider UNC!

By damage I was referring to the spotting it's hard to tell if it's taken over a lot of the coin. I don't see any signs that it's been cleaned like people are saying though. And it looks pretty solid at au50. I wonder what the answer is hahah the suspense on this one is killing me.

I would like to see a close up of the S and the VDB before making a call on grade.

The S is complete, a scratch on the slab is obscuring it. WipeNew seems to work on car headlights, maybe I can try it on this slab.

And PCI said ... drumroll ... EF40 green label
Am I remembering correctly that PCI used a red label for "problem" coins?

nick10 - Serious? EF40 green label?
Is the slab that scuffed on the front?
If so, either buff that slab or.....drumroll.....send this S VDB for conservation and grading. Nothing but UP side in this coin.

PCI grades are all over the map, so I will guess the "true" grade is XF details, cleaned and/or environmental damage.

Interesting, thanks for the feedback. Yes, the left half of the front plastic is hazy much like older car headlight covers. This is one of 10-digit green labels which I understand are the most conservatively graded of PCI slabs. I gather there are no PCI cert number databases online. To my eye the coin's reverse is the better of the two sides, AU-50, with the obverse dragging it down some. EF-45 would be my net grade.
