This is my latest purchase. It's a raw coin, so help me grade it.

XF40, and that's being gracious. Cleaned AND polished, still some crap leftover inside the letters. $7.00?

I don't know if I would be so harsh as Crazyb0 ,but i'll say AU55 Possible cleaning and retoned . Has decent eye appeal .

Au 53. Cleaned, questionable color.

My first thought was AU-55, possibly cleaned

Same here, solid AU-55 or better but flashback prevents any worthwhile judgement on the cleaning issue.

I also agree with a nice mid AU grade. Could've been cleaned at one point but it doesn't scream cleaned immediately

Most of you are in the same ballpark with me, I was thinking AU-53, the seller had it graded as AU-55. I ended up getting it for about the price of AU-50. If it was cleaned once long ago, I forgive the coin, not its fault. The color looks way better in hand than that photo shows.

Well done. Can you show us some angled pics without the flashback, please. No idea what this actually looks like.

I'll try to get better photo, I have a better camera setup on order, but it hasn't shipped yet.

I suspect your photo isn't doing this coin justice. If the background is white, the color has a pink tinge to it that may be causing the cleaned look some are seeing. I'm at AU-50. Nice coin.

Yeah, lighting is dog doo. This pic is as close to the real color as I can get with this setup.
