Here's another one from an inherited collection that I'm planning to sell. How would you grade it? Any descriptors I should include in listing the item? Thanks.

Obverse looks uncirculated but there is definite wear on the eagle's breast which brings the grade down to AU-58 at best. Otherwise it looks like a nice coin. The lines visible around the sun rays look raised which would make them die polishing lines rather than hairline scratches.
Should sell in the $15-20 range I would expect.

I agree with AU58, too much wear on the reverse.

Looks cleaned. No better than AU 58 to MS 60.

Has the look of a dipped coin to me, but hard to determine for sure without the coin in hand.

If you are selling on ebay, then numeric grades aren't permitted. I would just call it almost uncirculated.
