This one was really hard to photograph. Hazing and glare are from the holder. Coin has an attractive, subtle glow in hand.

I agree it's a weakish strike.
Horn is flat but the tail is split.

Hard to grade.
If it's AU-58 then the hip bone should show a slight rub.
If the surfaces are totally original then MS-63 is reasonable and MS-64 not out of the realm of possibility.

I say they graded it MS62. I see luster with weak strike.

In this case photographing the coin inside the slab has not helped, despite best efforts.
