Probably an old cleaning and now has some toning from it.
Lots of detail so it is appealing for that.
If you like it is really all that matters.

I figure it'll get nailed for cleaned and retoned, but I liked it anyway (except for that obverse dark spot). Don't think it'd grade straight at all. Guess I'm just stubborn!  Edited by Blastenpene4

Frankly, I figured that this was one of those coins that people who like toning would love. Coin in nice condition and a semi key date. I went for it. What about grade?

MS64 maybe 65. Attractive.  . Only matters that you like it imho.  IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I was going back and forth about just turning it around, but I've decided to keep it. It's quite pretty in hand. Don't think I'll have a problem selling it when that time comes - lots of people seems to love toned coins and the condition is very nice. Thanks for the comments.

That overall pink color is not natural for copper and a sure giveaway an acid has been involved at some point. I'm with westernsky, UNC details cleaned and QC.

Sort of looks like the type of AT you get from the sulfur in a hard boiled egg? Otherwise still a pleasing coin.

Sticking with cleaned and re-toned, lifeless look.

Cleaned a retoned.
It will not straight grade.
If you like it that's all that matters, hopefully you didn't o over pay.
