I always get suspicious when I don't see any toning.
I suspect it's been dipped.

Thanks for the responses guys........Just to let you know my camera shoots pics in 4K this in addition to the macro is showing every little detail in the coins. I'm also shooting in super bright white light or sunlight, So the coin may look whiter than it really is I didnt realize this until yesterday. The coin is not super white. Tbop I dont know if its a die crack on the U like you metioned.....Ill take a better look...not sure! here are a few other shots to help   this pic is in indirect sunlight  Thanks for the replies guys.....I think I'm just a bad photographer, I need to get the coins looking more natural!

Your second batch of photos were much easier to work with. Proving that you simply can't give an exact opinion without hesitation when it comes to cleaning or not cleaned.
In this case, the second photos (the last one in particular) do confirm that it has been clean wiped. Notice the "halo" around the design elements and letters. That's because the wipe didn't get into those tight spaces. Which gives the area around those tight spaces a flat look with a halo of silver in those tight spaces.
Also indicates the slightest of handling at centers, so AU-58.

Thanks Moxking and coinfrog......I dont understand why someone would clean such a decent coin.....But I'm glad I'm learning .....Im learning that I'm going to have to start buying graded coins because I suck at seeing these details lol

Titan - it's not a big deal on a coin like this. Perhaps it was just thumbed, but you can see the scratches. If you have learned something from this post, that's what is important.  |

true coinfrog......honestly it could have been me or my daughters I touch the coins with my bare hands.....my daughters also handled the coin. They might have rubbed it. If I'm going to be doing this I really have to be more serious in how I handle my coins. Also I have been learning a lot from you guys comments, I'm finding what to look for when inspecting a coin. The more I read what you guys have to say the more gratified and confident I will feel with my next purchase!
Again thanks for all your responses!

After viewing 2nd set of photos I'm inclined to change my grade opinion to AU-58 . Not FSB . Yes coin looks cleaned especially the reverse.
Titan 7170 , on 2nd set of photos that mark is not a die crack.
