I've been really busy, but carving some time out to practice a little grading. I wrote down what I think the grade should be, and I'll share it after a bit. Raw coin - from a lot of "unsearched" LWCs.

AU58 Slider, meaning it could go up to MS if the lighting is a bit better and I could see ALL the rims to determine the amounts of high point wear, of which I see little due to some glare/shadow on shoulder. But BN seems right. I am concerned by the vertical streaking on reverse especially and some on obverse, a wipe of some sort?

Thanks very much y'all. I'll be more careful re: lighting and getting full rims in the image--good feedback for my photo skills!

I had AU-58 details. I agree it got scratched or something along its travels.

AU-58. Could be MS but virtually impossible to be certain from these pics.
