Thanks for your take on the coin so far guys! Took some close up pics, let me know what you think. Is it worth sending to a TPG? Bought for about 200$, so I'm hoping for MS anything here.

I think it is at least a AU-58, may even grade MS. The toning is making it a little trickier to grade.

AU53 to me. nice toning though I believe it hides a lot of the light circulation wear that would be under it in the field.

Is this natural toning or re-toning after an old cleaning?

Gorgeous coin virtually mark free. I see no obvious traces of wear just weak strike that is typical of this issue.
MS-64
NOTE - toning can be misleading on these coins. I believe it is original and there is lots of luster hiding under it
