Would like some grading opinions on this. Note, this coin has some real nice luster, but I couldn't get it into the photos. Also, I noticed that when I flipped the slab over, the reverse is at a bit of an angle, even though the obv is not at an angle when I'm looking at the slab perfectly aligned. You can see it in the rev picture.

Yeah, luster is a huge factor in grading these. Is there a lot of luster around the lettering on the obverse? If no, I would say AU50, if yes, it could got as high as 58....not seeing Mint State though.

with IGE, at XF45.
Hair detail on Liberty gone, but the full body of her head remains. Detail on wreath tie and leaves a bit gone, with high points flat.

No problems, and otherwise a nice coin.
I need one of these myself.

There is a good amount of luster surrounding the wreath on the reverse, and around liberty's head on the obverse. Not much in any other areas. But where there is luster, it is very prominent.
