AU53/55 very nice, that rim ding at 7:00 on the reverse might hurt the grade and price a bit, but it's not bad considering. The coin appears to have had an old cleaning as well but thankfully not a very harsh cleaning.

I'll go with AU-50. I agree with the old cleaning though it has retoned nicely.

Very nice! AU-53 in my opinion. Light cleaning, rim ding detract a little but it has good eye appeal.

AU50 maybe stretch to 53...I like to see some luster peeking through at the higher AU levels. agree with the ding but overall a really nice coin. in an album you're not going to see that and it is minor IMO

This coin makes a strong argument for a nice AU in favor over a weak MS. Love the look; AU53.

I'm in at AU-50. Like some of the others, lightly cleaned.
