I want to say AU50 on this one. I really like the tone. Very nice Seated Half!

Another AU50, might go 53.
That's a pretty coin!

I'm more in the XF 40 range, still a great half.

I'm with muddler here. XF40, maybe 45 with good eye appeal.

I was thinking 45 to 50. The feathers on the eagle seem to show some wear as well as her hair. Decent luster left.. and very nice looking piece. Should be worth AU money.

If it was based on the amount of details, I would be inclined to agree with Muddler but this coin looks like it has a significant amount of luster. This coin should grade an EF-45 to AU-50 IMO. Great coin!

I'm voting XF45. The hair detail is a bit lacking for AU. If there was an XF48 grade, it would get it. Nice Luster.  |

AU-50. Seen hair detail lacking in many other slabbed AU's.

 There's enough luster for AU-50 and the choice original surfaces can only help the numerical grade. An AU-53 is possible IMO based on eye appeal. Nice! |

Oh, hello.
No worse than AU50.

I agree the amount of luster present suggests AU50.
