Picked this up at my local jewelry/bullion shop today. The coin is somewhat darker than I've allowed it to appear in these photos.

holy mackerel, this is a grading forum! How'd I miss that? Just saw it was unanswered earlier. My apologies.

Let's see here...

I took the above coin to Rick Snow today, and asked him if it was submitted for certification, what grade he would expect it to receive. His opinion was that it probably would come back in the Fine range with a "Details" annotation. He felt it had likely been cleaned, albeit a long while back.

Forgot to mention as it does have that soft appearance indicative of a past cleaning.
