Looking for an opinion on grade. I also have a suspicion that this may not have original surfaces. Thoughts?

unfortunately it appears to be AT which is a shame considering the high AU state, if not MS, of the coin. it's dark enough to indicate the color was cooked in and some of those hues are brighter than standard.

looks like an Obverse 7 (F107) due to the broken "S" and the date being slightly left and high level to the relief. And if that is a die crack running over the "States" than its a later die state but the date measurement and position seem to indicate the proper die obverse mentioned.

Looks like AU-55 but I have to lean towards artificial toning.

Ya it really is a bummer, I was hoping to bid on this coin but the bid is already representative of a problem Free AU ($125). I loved the coin but I guess I'm going to have to let it go.
