I would like to get everyone's opinion on what you think this coin will grade out as. It's a beautiful coin

The main weakness I see is on the reverse. The top of the wing over the head looks weak (but it may just be the angle of the picture). Also, the year "10" in the date looks a little worn. But what is really nice is that there are very few marks on either side. My guess is MS 63 to 64, but I can always wish for a 65 . I looked at coins on Heritage and this one compares very nicely to the higher grades.

Thanks in advance.

I am going to have to say this coin looks AU to me. It could be the pics...but it looks devoid of luster and there seems to be wear on the obverse, at the knee, nose, toes, breast.


I do not know this series so take that with a grain of salt.

I have to agree, with all the flat spots like the date and the top of the eagles wings makes me think it was atleast rubbed a time or two and wouldn't constitute as a Uncirculated coin. But please remember I am a complete novice on these gold coins I am just looking at the pictures and comparing it to my MS-62 that I have in my Dansco and those few spots seem to stand out ad circulating areas to me atleast

That Saint looks AU from the images, and void of most mint luster on the obverse. I'd guess AU50 or AU53.
