Here's the slab. I paid $55 for this coin a couple of years ago I think it was a decent buy.

IMHO your in hand pics are showing a nice looking SLQ and no indication of a details coin .

I think the in hand pics accurately depict surfaces, henceforth my AU details grade from earlier.

The most recent photos posted especially the reverse shows the cleaning.

The reverse photo of the holder shows what I take are hairlines.

You did fine at 55$.

I also think NGC, and several of us here, we're all pretty close in our opinions about the coin being AU and cleaned.

Thank you all. I agree this group knows coins. Very often ICG slabs are over graded, I thought this one was fairly accurate so I picked it up at a discount for my SLQ collection. Should I leave it alone or crack it out? What about submitting it to PCGS or NGC? Does it make any sense to do that?
Thanks again.

You are not hurting the value of the coin by cracking it out. It makes no sense to send to NGC or PCGS as it will most likely come back AU Details Cleaned. Nice coin that appears to have been lightly cleaned.

I think IGC got this one right and it is almost FH but not quite. Still a nice coin.

It is alright in the slab it is in. That's just my opinion.

Agree, leave well enough alone.
