I will try to get better pictures later tonight or tomorow ( have a date to go to) . This coin has some light natural toning which doesn't really show up in these photos. paid only $60 at LCS!

He has a book without half the set of these, I should go in tomorrow and get more.

I don't know. The price raises my suspicions that there must be something wrong with this coin. No competent LCS dealer is going to sell a $150+ dollar coin for $60.

I agree with the others it is XF+ to low AU in technical grade but I'm not totally convince it is problem free (perhaps possibly cleaned?).

That was a great deal if it is indeed problem free.

$60? I'd need to see better pics to see exactly why you paid a details price for what appears to be an AU coin.

this coin does look like it had an old cleaning. so XF 45 to AU 50 details seems like the right grade. the dealer had it labeled VF and sold it for $60, is that still a good buy?

I seem to be losing a lot of detail when I use the image optimizer compared to what can be seen when I open the photo in paint. any tips on fixing that?

Fair price, in my opinion.
