AU-50 lots of hairlines. Realize that the Grey Sheet pricing is what dealers sell for, not necessarily fair market value.

Local dealers near me buy for around 10% under bid, and sell for around ask. Since I bought it 20% under AU50 bid...

For some reason my cameras lighting makes the coin always look cleaned. Faint hairlines turn into harshly cleaned lines.

I'm not ready to call it brushed. Hairlines are not always deliberate, so when you see them you have to take the additional step of considering why they're there. Where, on this coin, is the other evidence of cleaning? The only way to get everything off a coin is to brush it so hard that the surfaces are covered.

Why are there only hairlines on the left of the reverse and the right of the obverse? Where's the missed crud in the tight areas? Where's the need to clean?

This one isn't cleaned, to my mind. Just a victim of the differences of digital imaging.

I agree that the pics enhance the hairlines
I have it about AU55, around $125. US raw.
