Picked up this one recently. Looks better in real life. My photography needs some work.

Clearly many of the scratches are on the holder, as they extend beyond the edge of the coin. Beyond that, I am not convinced it is AT. Adjusting for flash differences, the "toning" seems to be similar on both sides. I'm guessing this could be a 62/63RB.

AU details. Cleaned and starting to retone. What is that on the neck on the obverse?

I would grade it UNC Details. This doesn't have the characteristics of album toning or slow long environmental kind of toning that will get a straight grade. Most likely cleaned in the past and that's why the toning has taken on this splotchyness.

I would be curious to see if that line on the neck is a scratch or is it struck through debris?

Too many surface marks and scratch on neck, I'm still at AU-58 details, cleaned.
