My photos are an insult to this coin. The reverse is a stunner. I had to take the pics at an angle since my phone won't focus on it if I took it straight up, the contrast is too big and it keeps getting overexposed. Pink and blue toning with lustrous surfaces.

It's REALLY hard to grade heavily toned coins unless with a loupe, and then even it's tough. It IS beautiful, and I'd say at least high AU (58+). If it's Mint State, I'm guessing 3 but it's hard to tell if the marks on the obverse are wear, cabinet wear, or toning. If that's toning it could be a 4 or 5 coin. Sorry for the ambiguous answer, but it's hard to grade heavily toned coins unless in-hand!

That's the best I can do. I tried several times but can't take a better pic. Even in hand I don't think it's easy to grade since the strike itself is very mushy (a lot of my nicer coins have a mushy strike, which is sad). I haven't seen silver tone this way. Some kind of roll toning I think this is.
