I'll say AU-55 assuming it doesn't get a details grade.

Photos don't show the surface very well so we will just be guessing. I'm in at AU-55 providing the coin has not been cleaned. If cleaned it gets AU details.
Not sure what is going on with the surface around the date and star, possible pitting? If so then the coin was definitely cleaned.

I'm guessing these are scans, not photos.
I'll put her at AU53.

These are the sellers images. (I will take some better ones when the coin arrives)

I don't like the images and would guess AU50 from what can be seen.

EF-45 details. Cleaned. Artificially re-toned.

I will go with EF-45 based on the scans. If the coin has more luster and/or eye appeal than is shown in the pictures, I may be more inclined to give it a higher grade.

I'm a little worried about the area around the date and through RICA. Nice AU-ish detail but I don't know if it qualifies as original surfaces.

I will run with EF45. There is obvious, but minor, wear on the high parts.

EX-45 may have been dipped years ago

Doesn't look like original surface color to my eye.
I'm in the no-higher-than-45 camp.
