My Christmas present to myself... wanted a nice SLQ for my 7070. Any opinions as to grade or value?

Pics aren't the greatest, sorry. The gold colour is stray lighting and is not part of the coin.

Thanks!

Honestly, it's hard to tell but I'd guess higher AU.

I agree with high grade AU from a very late die state.

That is one gorgeous coin. Am I just partial to the older coins, OR they just don't have the craftsmanship and creativity like they used to on the new coins? I really do not care for the designs on the newer coins.

we should go back to artistic designs instead of dead presidents - the SLQ posted is one great example

Even in 1964, the newer Saints carried a premium over the Libs.

I think this one may be XF40 condition, I believe it has to much wear to maker the AU grade in my opinion

Under a microscope, there appears some slight flattening to the face, which begs the question, is it wear or the strike? What are the highest points that show the first signs of circulation wear on this series? What other indicators are there of wear vs strike on SLQs?
