AU Details Polished. Doesn't matter if cleaning lines are present, this coin has been obviously polished and no original mint surfaces remain.

What value would you put on this coin? Is it even worth grading?

Does anyone see doubling on the reverse at "UNITED" in the third photo? Might just be the camera angle as it's not prominent in photo #2 which is smaller.

Au. Maybe left in acetone or cleaner to long? Wiped clean... But still darn beautiful. Think id try to ask a local shop before sending in

Acetone would not alter a coin like this, this is polished/cleaned.
VF-20 details.

This is not a VF20 Coin.
AU Details-Cleaned/Polished
Leaving this coin in Acetone does nothing harmful.

AU details, drastically altered surfaces. Besides the apparent plating or polishing, some features look strange. Liberty's right arm is curiously hollow in the center. The breastplate area looks battered and the flag, olive branch, and obverse fields show a weird pebbly texture. Counterfeiters often blunder date digits but the date on this coin looks correct.
This is a high-grade but suspiciously bizarre example of a semi-key Walker. An original AU is worth over $1000, but not this one. My first priority would be to establish authenticity.
