I have a couple of these. This is not "whiskers" from last month, this is just a plain old A&R but when I showed this last summer I did not have the added benefit of scope cam and these great true shots

I see AU, there's good luster left on this one and it debated between AU50 and XF45 and details (rim) last year, I'd like to hear yours with these shots

I would agree on the AU with light wear on the leading edge of the eagles wings.

Too bad about the rim dings.

Looks like EF-45 to me. The rim hits reduce the appeal but may not rise to the level of a "problem". Those blue highlights seem odd; are they just a result of the lighting?

I think it could very well hit an AU, but definitely no lower than EF-45! Nice coin!

Between EF45 with a good shot up and including AU55

I think AU53 it's a nice original example.

yes, Scope Cam came with a series of 8 tiny LEDs around its parameter and I have since rigged it to eliminate the nasty glare they cause but it does leave that blue hue on coins with luster

I agree with AU and the fact that the rim issues prevent a PQ example

thanks for taking a look and offering your thoughts everyone

EF-40 (details, due to rim nics and bumps).
