Just got this through APMEX for my 7070. I'm very pleased with it....I know the pics aren't great but grade and thoughts? It was from their "XF" selection.

It looks like there is some luster. Does it display this in hand?

I like it at XF. Maybe 40 rather than 45 but it gets there.

I'd guess APMEX sold it as an AU piece. I could see it making AU50.

Edit - I see you said an XF selection. It looks nice for an XF.

well first off nice coin its gonna be a great addition to your 7070. Second id say AU50 because of the luster but it may be higher because of that like maybe AU53? It would definately be pushing it, but with the luster it could easily be AU53 especially cause the luster is easier to see with the gold

I can see it grading AU-50 possibly AU-53. There is a good bit of mint luster surviving and much more than what I typically see for an EF coin.

XF-45 maybe AU-50 with a better picture of luster.
