Looks like a nice coin but hard to grade from these photos.

That's a function of the white balance being slightly off - you can tell by the background color which looks like it ought to be white.

I don't think this one has circulated, but it's a less-than-stellar strike for San Francisco. Shot at 64, maybe. Is that a lamination I see on the eagle's breast?

The pictures are a little hard to grade from and the lighting kind of gives the coin a "cleaned" look. It looks like it would be at least a high AU and could very possibly be MS.
