the deep scratched are what would make this a detail coin. I see luster breaks in the motto, however I am guessing this coin to be of original color and somewhat original luster. Keep in mind guys, he is new to the coin community so he would be very far from the plateau of taking proper pictures with proper lighting. You can see in some of the pics, he has a light directly on the coins. Anyone who has seen a pre33 gold coin that has been cleaned under a direct light knows how much worse it would look if harshly cleaned.

Just took a few more pics w/o any lights on and it's dark and cloudy outside. May get a better more natural view if the coin? Thanks to Copperpennyconnection for bringing that to my attention (sun was shining yesterday).
