Thanks for looking!

Wow! Not confident about grading but great eye appeal. Wow!
Interesting marks on her breast ( not meaning to be stupid) just curious.
Trying to keep this family friendly without going into detail so CCF people do not give stupid answers. PLEASE!

AU50 sounds about right. Can't see it going any higher than that.

I'm going to say the new one is XF-45 but it's hard to say without having it in hand.

EF45/AU50 right on the line to me. Nice upgrade from the older coin.

I am thinking AU-50. The areas around Liberty and the stars sharply contrasts with the brighter fields while the reverse is more evenly toned with a more gradual transition between lighter and darker areas. The obverse may have received an old cleaning but it is a great coin and quite an upgrade.
