I just got this raw coin in the mail today. There are quite a few die cracks on this one. It also does still have some luster remaining (more on the reverse than obverse.) How would you grade it?

XF-45 I like the "character" cracks.

Nice looking Shield nickel...don't have that hole filled in my 7070...yet.

It seems to be around EF-45/AU-50.

EF-45 with a bit of a weak strike on the obverse shield/reverse center.

Nice!

I love this coin, one of my all-time favorites. I would say at least XF with die cracks (welcome to some)
