It's a very nice coin. I would say AU55. I can't speak to the cleaning. I still have trouble identifying that when it is done well.

Either that is cleaning or a lot of bag marks. Looks MS 61 if that isn't cleaning

It just looks bagmarked to me, in a manner that doesn't suggest to me that it's been cleaned. This is a coin I'd really want to examine in hand to be more sure about. In any event, I'd judge that the marks on the face would limit it to MS62, but I've seen similarly marred examples eke out a 63 grade.

I will go with AU-55. I think the marks and hairlines would prevent it from getting a 58 especially since this date normally comes very nice.

The color pattern is characteristic of toning after a cleaning. So it's a Details coin, and I don't see all those marks happening without circulation. Those aren't bagmarks.
