Curious what grade you think this will make.

I would call her MS, a really nice strike but color is questionable. Great coin!

it might just be the picture but it looks like there is slight wear on the cap and hair on obv, and wings, feathers, eagles head and talons reverse so I would say high AU and possibly MS like I said could just be the lighting and picture. Overall really nice coin.

It looks to be very high AU to MS but I think the coin may have been over dipped. The surfaces look a bit lackluster for a coin that has this much detail but it may be just in the pictures. Still a nice coin!

I chose the pics above more because they capture the iridescent toning. Here are a few other pics to give a different feel for the surfaces:

It's a beauty that I would grade at AU-55.
Rest in Peace

I agree with the dipped comments. As for grade, I'd say high end AU.
