Could you make the lighting not as bright. It is very hard to judge the surfaces of the coin with your current lighting.

But it looks AU/MS as it sits.
Rest in Peace

Nice coin
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Indirect light, or covering the light source with a thin white material might help. As it is, the bright just overwhelms the details.

It's a beauty, that's for sure, but for a grade, I'd really need to see those details.

I see Mint State detail but the images say nothing about luster or surface quality. Bright photos like this when posted for ebay auctions often conceal significant problems like stripped luster and fine hairline scratches.

Any chance you can post some better photos?
