Very nice!

I have no experience grading these, but I'd say around au53. I would go higher, but for the scuff above the ribbon.

Can't tell what that silvering is all around the top of the wreath. Could just be reflection.

AU sounds right, definitely cleaned at some point, looks like an old dipping, as the color is off.

Plain 5 date variety, slightly harder to find than the Fancy 5. Love that reverse die crack coming out of the rim going through the "E" of United.
