Note that I've taken the picture to show the slide marks across the cheek. These are probably from improper storage. I took the WORST picture possible to show those slide marks.

Well, given that, I think it should make 63. How about showing us a "better" pic?

MS-63

IMO, it has a shot at PL if there's reflection on the obverse.

I don't think you'll get an MS grade on this one. I sure don't like the scrape across the face and rub in the reverse field. I'd be at AU-58 details, cleaned.

AU-58 or MS62, could go either way.

I'd guess Uncirculated Details, but the fields do looks promising from the photos.

I think the scratch would give it details grade which is a shame because if it were original I think it would have shot at PL

The lines across the obverse are most unfortunate. It could have been a very nice coin otherwise.

I think she's a slider 58. Little too much roughness on the high points even for a New Orleans lady.

Thanks, all. Confirmed what I thought but it was close enough to ask, especially since it had a shot at PL.

UNC Details (Damage) unfortunately.
That is a lot more damage than simply a bit of "cabinet rub"
