So in hand, it doesn't look quite as good as the original pictures. The only way I can describe it , the luster looks a little "flat" on the observe. With that said, I think that is a characteristic of the 1921 Peace dollar in general. I have seen many of them in straight grade holders with a very similar look so I am still confused on if this is truly "cleaned."

Perhaps this was dipped one too many times? Under 10x magnification, there are absolutely no signs of hairline cleaning marks. Based on my new pictures would it be worth sending in to grade one day? Unfortunately I'm not a member so I can't send in to NGC or PCGS so even if I submitted it for grading it would likely be a long time.

Any additional thoughts on the grade (if it's truly "details" or not) and if it would be worth re-submitting someday would be appreciated. Thanks!

Still looks like a pretty nice coin with a superior strike. Evidence of cleaning is not at all obvious and I think it could come back with a straight grade if resubmitted.

No, just indicative of being overdipped.

I saw another 1921 that looked almost identical (minus the hit under the eye) and it graded MS62 in a yellow ANACS holder. It also had that kind of flat luster look on the observe. If I did resubmit this one I would only want to to go NGC or PCGS though. What do you think my chances of getting a straight grade are? Is it 50/50? Is NGC or PCGS more leinant on dipped coins? I was kind of hoping slider would chime in as I know he is knowledgeable on Peace dollars. Thanks everyone!
