Along the lines of AU55 and $350 retail from those images. Looks like a melt value coin at wholesale.

One should note, that grading gold coins between high AU and Low MS is often a matter of great debate. A coin graded by NGC for example at AU58 can sometimes be sent to PCGS who will grade it at MS62 for instance : )

It's funny to hear that, as there is somewhat of a difference in price between au vs ms

Agree, and hopefully larger. Very tough to make a call from these pics.

Id wager, if that coin was raw and was sent in to NGC it would come back at AU58 and if you sent it to PCGS it would come back at MS62. The TPGs tend to shy away from giving coins MS60 grades these days

An MS-60 old green PCGS slab will probably regrade at MS-61 or 62 today. Standards were much tighter when those old slabs were used.
