Is that the same coin? The obverse in the latest picture looks very close to MS. The reverse drags this coin down a bit. It appears to be soft struck to the point of looking like circulation wear.
Could indeed be MS. BTW, look upper-ear. At one point, we had hundreds of these. That upper-ear isn't circulation wear, it's rather a different, less-defined, die. If you look at a lot of these, you'll notice, there's another die that shows much better detail in that area. You also have strong initials (what would otherwise be described as, a "strong V.D.B.").Is that the same coin? The obverse in the latest picture looks very close to MS.
