I think MS62-63 RB because I can see what I think is a little bit of rub on the king's cheek.

Im also curious what has happened on the reverse? My first thought was a clip but I looked back at the obverse picture and theres no sign of it Is it the foam around it or something else?

I am guessing it was the way the photo was taken.

AU55 based on photo, but you might catch an UNC from one of the US graders. I actually don't think one can grade a coin as UNC from a photo.

I agree ...

One, has to have the coin in hand to give an accurate grade, it is all speculative with pictures, someone may call it EF someone else will see it as, AU..

If the picture is half decent, you most certainly can identify an Unc coin from a pic.

Now, distinguishing an ms64 from an ms65, that's different!

Hard to say for certain based on those pics, but it looks unc to me. I'd say 62.

It definitely looks like mid-range MS, perhaps higher. Nice obverse, I have attached a link to a post from many months ago.
