I have had this coin for a while, and it is up for sale now. It is beautifully lustrous, but has several planchet flaws on the obverse, as you can see. No post mint damage or problems though. Grade?

Another vote for AU-55 luster and detail here. The heavy obverse marks and rim hit at 3:30 likely don't rise to the level of "damage" but they do reduce the eye appeal and therefore the market grade. Sale price should be less than what a more pristine AU example might bring.
The cheapest AU-50 sold at Heritage in the last year went for $3525. Your coin has superior luster and detail but that might be a reasonable ballpark figure due to the marks.
