I just picked this one up for my Type set, what do you guys think it'd grade?   |

I don't have much experience grading these, but imo it's XF40, maybe 45

AU Details cleaned is my guess from the photos. Better photo would shed more light on the color. Nice sharpness!

I tried taking around 20 pictures of it and in every one the color just doesn't match up. This is the best I came up with, it actually has an even chocolate brown color with a bit of luster around the rims and a bit in the fields.

I went back to the drawing board and changed the background to see if that would help. The colors came out more true, but now its hard to see the details.......   |

For me an easy 45 maybe even low 50's if I could see better definition.

I'm at low MS, can't see any wear. Was going to say MS63, but all the lower grades scared me.

AU55. Circulation wear on chin forehead. And bustline as well as some of the leaves. I think it would grade in a clean holder. Don't think it was cleaned. Nice 34

AU53. Nice original surfaces. Tip of bust, cheek and leaves show slight wear as Panzaldi noted! Minor rim ding @ 11:00 obverse.

Thanks all! I have it at 55. I really liked the natural look on this one, along with the details it still had.  |

My first impression was mid-high AU.

High points show traces of wear, I'd say AU-58

Definitely high AU in my book. Higher than 55. Not quite MS.
56-58.
