AU-53/55. Bright surfaces could be hinting issues.

AU details. Cleaned. I don't see direct evidence so I may ought to keep that opinion to myself. She is just a little bright to be original IMO. May have been lightly dipped.

I don't like it in these images. The surfaces look washed out and unnatural.

so many of these were cleaned over the decades. this one does look like it has however it may have been a dip and not anything harsh. the recessed grime around many of the devices add to that assessment.

most of these details due to that and I think this one is no exception however you never know what a TPG would say about it. I like the coin overall though and I hope it would grade straight

I'm with jpbone on this one AU details (cleaned)

If the Trueview pic is anywhere close to "true" then the OP's images are misleading.
