Look for high point wear / scuffing in the Indian's cheek, the head band, the feather ties on obverse, and on the eagle's leading edge of the wings and eyebrow.

There is the tiniest amount of wear in these locations as well as dings, nicks and scratches in the fields consistent with
AU55.

I have to admit:
The BLP incuse designs on the Quarters and Halves are just about the most difficult for me to grade, of all U.S. coins.

Nevertheless, a different and inspired approach to coin design, of which the United States Mint should be justifiably proud.

Thank you. I thought AU but lower end. These are the hardest coins to grade for sure.
