Very nice!

As with the others, I will defer to the experts for a grade.

The coin appears to be an AU example to my eyes (based on your images). How is the luster on the coin?

Authentic with no obvious signs of surface issues based on your photos.

This Maine is likely quite weakly struck ... and the strike quality should not be confused for circulation wear.

The difference between MS and AU is the remaining state of the original mint luster on the portraits that appear by your photo to exhibit wear ....

Tell us ... examine closely the reverse bough of pine ... is the luster full and un-broken at the obvious signs of wear/weakness at 5pm and 7pm?
