moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 07:24 am So very close to mint state. Slightest circulation rub at centers both obverse and reverse with miniscule luster breaks. Beautiful AU-58. Report this Post to the Staff
dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 08:01 am I think it's mint state - MS63 - limited by a few hits on the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 08:22 am After reviewing this lusterous beauty, I'm going with MS-63- Slightly weak at centers. IMHO . I don't see any finger prints on this coin, if it was circulated there would be prints on the highly pristine surfaces . I can be wrong ; but I feel I need to go with this .

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36905 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 09:53 am I've got to agree with Mox, the contrast is cranked up on the photo but the rub on the high points is still visible. This one is a slider, very close to MS but just not there. AU-58 Edited by IndianGoldEagle 02/13/2016 09:56 am Report this Post to the Staff

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 10:23 pm I will go AU-58 as well. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 02/13/2016 10:29 pm I see a 62 on this one. I've seen coins with slight wear like so get UNC grades. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 12:55 am MS63, but struck from worn dies: look at the heavy flow lines and the die polishing lines on the obverse; I do not see wear on the high points.

bjcMD New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 02/14/2016 4:34 pm Thanks everybody! I've definitely noticed the central wear on the obverse but the rub on the breast is new to me. Borderline AU/MS makes a lot of sense, although I'd hope that the luster would carry it to low MS if I ever submit it to a TPG. Report this Post to the Staff
