A few days ago, I won this coin on ebay. Curious to hear your opinions on this one.

Photos aren't the greatest, but this is the best I can do with my smart phone camera.

Can't quite make up my mind if it is a weak strike, or slightly out of focus pictures.
Couple of small dings on Liberty's skirt, and the Eagle's wings.
The edge milling should be sharp to the fingers.

I wasn't expecting that high of a grade! I need to get me peepers checked! Seriously...I'm terrible at this. I was thinking AU, so this is most welcome news!

I initally saw this coin as an AU but without holding in hand and having a great light source to look at it under, it is a very tough series to call from a static photo.

I didn't reply at first because I too thought higher end AU. I don't see mint luster and there are a lot of nicks. Maybe in hand I would think differently. Nice coin either way.
