Looks like a lot of field marks so MS-62 may be correct. Closer photos would help in grading this one.

Very nice coin. Can not tell grade from photos, but it would be nice to have coin in PCGS or NGC holder to maximize value.

Sorry for the bad pics. Small coin and I cant post a video it seems but the coin is very shiny. I tried to see if I could read any reflections to test for mirrors. Hard to see words but you can see reflections of images. . Looks to be a mishandled proof perhaps? I tried my best to take better ones see original post. I appreciate all the help!

The coin appears to be correctly graded. I would recommend a crossover to PCGS.

I agree with 62. Some photos flatter the coin better than others. The reverse surface looks better than the obverse fields. Seems very attractive.  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."

62 seems right to me also. They are attractive coins. I think the Liberty Seated is the most beautiful series, especially the mint state coins.

If the luster is subdued then 62 sounds about right. The darkness (toning) at the periphery of the coin combined with the bright central devices also hurt it a bit. It is a nice piece and my comments are what I see as reasons for a 62 grade.

I would also agree with MS-62 from the pictures provided.
