Cropped from sellers' photos...thoughts?

This one has a wicked obverse die crack running along the bottom through the bust and GEORGIVS, and another die crack along the right that aims towards the back of the head from the rim through N in IND. It looks to have some mint luster left.

It seems that there's a little smudge on the coin, just a little but enough to make sure it's not MS. I guess high AU then. AU58 or so?

I'll go XF+ to AU, depending on the TPG, but there's environmental damage that would drop a TPG grade.

I agree on the AU58 and also what looks like it could be environmental damage.

When I get it, I'll soak it in Verdi-Care and take photos not constrained by 2x2 flips.

In-hand following a Verdi-Care bath. The reverse has a very nice woodgrain effect. I did check and there is no porosity apparent on the surfaces. Really a handsome coin!
