Thoughts on this? I just picked it up for my 7070. I'll try to get better pics but this is best I could do for now. Thanks!

Atleast High AU. Could hit the MS range but I think I see a tiny bit of wear. Better pics would help.

I see wear. I'd say mid AU, like AU-55. Better pics would help.

There is some light wear on the high points, but it's hard to tell the coin is so small. I got it raw from a pawn store for a good price, so if it ends up with a good estimated grade that's a plus. I'll get better pics and repost. Thanks all.
Rest in Peace

be very careful buying these raw. They are HEAVILY counterfeited, even with real gold at the right weight. Must be sent to a TPG for authenticity purposes.

I am wary of this coin. The portrait looks off. I've never seen a cheek that full on a gold dollar. And combined that you got this at a pawn shop. I would return this coin if possible.

This coin looks.. odd, imo. Her face seems a bit too perky, not quite as relaxed as what I normally see. The bottom right of the bust doesn't dip down like it normally does.
I'm not an expert on $1 golds, better pics would help.

Here are some better pics. I'm not that good with a camera. The coin does look much better in hand, though it does have some wear that really didn't show in the first set of pics I posted. Thanks.
