I think the coin would grade around a EF-45/AU-50. There appears to be a little bit of rim damage at around 10 o' clock obverse. It may have been dipped in the past but I am not sure. Still a nice coin!

VERY nice detail! Obverse: somewhat flat right thigh and hair, with a few distracting marks in the right obverse field. Spectacular reverse!

AU50 overall! A beauty anyone would be proud to have in their collection!!

Was thinking/hoping for a 50 to 53, I'm in it for about 140. Fairly happy with that.

And since this thread got a bump I figured I'd upload some better pictures of the coin

EF-40-45 range, to much wear to be Au.
Very nice coin for your type set.
