The first thing I look for in hand is to detect any field disturbance by tilts in light. That can't be done with a photo, and the different coloration makes it even more difficult to detect those first tells.

I see the tiniest bit of rub on the center of the obverse, but I don't spot any equal wear on the reverse.

I really can't go any further from these photos as this could be a 58 or a 63.

I know there are folks who like toned gold but I can say I like it very well on this example. Kind of splotchy. If it were on silver I'd call it artificial.
