Strong full liberty, but facial features lacking; also appears to have some wear on the breast, but thighs seem less worn than one might expect. Reverse appears well-struck with details consistent with AU. The lack of facial detail makes the coin appear cleaned, but if it is a weak strike, then perhaps it hasn't been cleaned.

Nice coin...and great story.

Nograde due to cleaning; horrible scratches. It might grade VF, XF if you're lucky.
