I'll take a guess and say AU-55.

With the every limited knowledge I have towards this series I'll just throw this out there and see if it sticks
MS-62

That is an absolutely gorgeous coin.

I see very slight rub on the obverse, but no matching rub on the reverse. That seems consistent with cabinet rub. The luster is fantastic. I see only one scratch, on the reverse at 8 o'clock, and scratches always look larger than they are on enlarged photos of smaller coins. To my eyes, this looks like MS-63+ or MS-64.

Fantastic coin.

For those of you who guessed MS(64), you were right on! CAC apparently agrees!

I have seen this greenish spot that I circles in blue in the lower right side of the reverse--it doesn't always show up clearly--only from certain angles. Is this technically verdigris? PCGS and CAC are both fine with it--given how insanely small the spot is on an already small coin, but I'm curious as to the nature of this "green" spot that looks to be different from regular toning.
