Opinions welcomed on grade, these are tough for me...it could be AU? Better?, seems like some remaining luster is present. The coin appears to be a VAM-1G? Rim Cud obverse and polishing lines all over. I tried to post photo's of the most prominent pick up points. Any help to grade or VAM confirmation is greatly appreciated! RK

Considering I have been posting 21 Peace dollars like a madman lately I'm going to say it's au55 range, very weak obverse strike. The luster isn't consistent enough to merit unc. If this VAM is scarce you may wanna send to PCGS or NGC and have it attributed

Agree, pancake AU-50 and certainly not a proof obverse die.

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."

Very weakly struck. Agree with AU-55. Not much wear but luster is inconsistent.

IMO EF-45 tops. Looks to have almost no luster.
