Color looks strange. First set looks cleaned. Second set looks copper nickel.

I'm leading toward EF also, I can't tell by the color if cleaned. For a good price I would take it home. It has nice visual appeal (7/10)

Yeah the color looks off . Obvious wear on coin .EF-45 Details . Those spots on reverse might not be verdigris , but corrosion .

I agree about the corrosion. I guess we will see when it comes back.

AU53 details, cleaned/recolored. Conservation might help it, but the color and the wear do not match up with each other. Still, for a key date coin, it's far from ugly!

I'll stick with cleaned and recolored with an intent to deceive, details. Look at that ribbon detail! Sending this for grading is a complete waste of money, sorry.

I still like it, falls into the half empty half full glass.Im seeing half full. Corrosion is what turns me away from a coin, sure would rather have AU EF straight for semi's but funds won't allow. These coins offer me an opourtunity at way below book for a sharp looking example 2 or 3 grades above a straight example. I mean come on folks - its a 71 they don't grow on trees, "I like cleaned semi keys"
