Comments and opinions please. I called this EF for a long time. Now, I call it AU. The surfaces are best portrayed in the reverse pic. Thanks for looking.

There's a bit too much wear for it to go AU IMO.
If the obverse has the same surfaces as the rev pic shows, that's XF45 for me.
Rest in Peace

I like it at AU as well. Lots of luster on that beauty! The spot of corrosion on the hair may be problematic though.

I would be very comfortable with this as an AU53, and wouldn't be surprised to see it at AU55.

I'll go with AU-55 with slight reservations about the spot in the hair that johnny54321 mentioned. Light wear on some of the hair curls. The reverse looks very lustrous which is something I don't typically see until at least Ch. AU.
