I'm going to go with AU58. I think I see a couple small points of wear. Very nice piece, regardless of the grade :)

AU 55 looks like couple nicks on the queens neck. Super nice coin!

Wow that is a nice coin from 1859. I would guess high AU 55 based on the luster, and the marks on it. Very hard to judge from a photo. Am I seeing re-punched letters in Canada? I do see some die cracks as well.

AU55---trace wear on braids--top knot--bottom neck---lower ear---lower cheek.
All in all-- a great coin---no problems at all.

Might be a slight amount of wear on the hair knot below Vikkie's ear, but (probably) none elsewhere.
Couple of small dings on obv.
AU58 orange.

Needs to be put in an airtite to conserve the orange.
