I'd say lowish mint state or high AU, but the coin looks like its been cleaned? Maybe its just the pictures...

I was promised it hasn't been cleaned. The pictures are bad, but the seller sounds really good about their return policy. I told them I'd need to see it in hand to make a final call.

WOW! Did the coin even look anything like the picture, or was it a 'stock' photo?

I'm sure it was the coin in the picture. The picture wasn't good, but all the details appeared to be there in the picture. It's often hard to tell if a coin is AU or MS from a good picture, nevertheless a poor one. I took a chance based on the seller telling me there was no wear on the coin, and that he would 100% ensure my satisfaction. It was not cleaned, in my opinion.

As for the shipping, definitely no complaints on the timing. However, when I spend $500 on a coin, I sort of expect it to come Xpresspost!
