I believe this one has been cleaned, however, take a close look at the reverse letter doubling. is this true doubling or what caused this? does this coin have additional value because of this? Please respond with grading, condition and opinions on the double letters and possible valuation.   Edited by panzaldi

It is pretty bright and appears to have been cleaned recently. I am fairly certain that this is an example of Longacre Doubling.
AU50-55 Details for the definite separation of the ribbon to hair.

Imma go EF45 and I'm not sure about the doubling but most likely Longacre.

Nice AU-50 details coin. Sure does look cleaned. Reverse appears to be a little weakly struck also, but obverse is razor sharp.

thanks for the links oih82w8. very interesting and I can see what is happening here with the doubling surrounding the letters rather than a true double strike which would be offset

I'm in with 52Raymo EF45 and cleaned, nice example of Longacre's Doubling!

I would have to go with 'cleaned' as well.
Slight wear on the high points, especially on the reverse.
AU50, cleaned.
