You sir are showing some exceptional coins, I'm quite jealous! I would place that at MS 64RD, not sure if it shouldn't be RB or not, guessing it is actually brighter in hand. Very nice, hard coin to find in good grades!

This one appears to have been dipped. As such Uncirculated, details, cleaned.

I'm going with MS details, dipped. But not harshly cleaned. Too bad, if no one had touched it, it might well have a shot at 65 bn.

The first thing I said to myself upon viewing this coin was hmm , the color is a little off . I have to agree with the majority on MS-64 Details lightly cleaned . This coin would have benefited from being left alone .  |

I am in the high AU camp. Can't comment on cleaning solely based on the photos, but the color is questionable based on the grade I'm at. Unless this is a coin that was pulled in 1912 and put in a perfectly preserving environment, cleaning is definitely a possibility.

I agree that the colour looks off. From those pictures, I would think AU-58 Details.

Dipped, who ever sold you this one got ya! If you can't grade yourself buy in slabs it's safer for you.

What a shame, probably looked nice pre-dip, and I'm actually looking for an original AU piece around this look that has no damage and is 100% original.
But yes, I agree, AU-58 details. Just a touch of wear above the ear.

Agree with the above. Cleaned with AU Details.
