Hope the pictures are ok, the coin is sealed in a plastic holder. Any feedback on grade is appreciated.

I'll say AU-55, possibly 58.

MS64BN. A couple of hits by the eye in obv and the top 3 feathers in the headdress are a little weakly struck at the top. Reverse looks clean except for a mark across the horizontal lines in the shield. Nice coin!

photos could have a little more light and out of holder would help. based on the photos I'm not seeing any signs of circulation. MS64BN but the eye appeal could knock it down a peg

Took a nose dive on this one... PCGS Genuine UNC Details (92 - Cleaned).

Here are the TrueView photos. It didn't looked cleaned in hand

Did they mistake the woody effect for cleaning? I zoomed in on the true view and I don't see any signs of "cleaning." I don't get it.

Was going to say the obverse had been recolored before I saw your PCGS post. Still a decent looking coin, I wouldn't be ashamed of it, by any means.
