AU53 sounds about right. I paid about that last week for a similar coin and it wasn't that nice.

Nice coin with sharp detail, I'd go AU-55.
Rest in Peace

I'd be at AU-55 too. I might suggest that when you get it you give it a brief soak in acetone. There is some evidence of plasticizer migration (the greenish look) from being stored, at some point in time, in a holder that still contained plasticizer. At the very least the acetone will arrest the corrosion and insure it doesn't spread further.

Nice pick, I agree with AU55ish. A dose of verdicare might be in order?
