Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 7:11 pm Pics are difficult to grade from. No evident wear, but the reverse scratch at K1 seems troubling - try to capture it from a different angle. Report this Post to the Staff

Jon Brand Pillar of the Community United States 1023 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 8:46 pm Id say maybe around ms60/61? Very hard to get a sense of its skin from the pics. At first I thought cleaned, but prob just the pics/lighting. Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36770 Posts	Posted 08/10/2018 1:51 pm The surface doesn't have that frosty original look. I'm betting cleaned at some point. AU-58 details, cleaned Report this Post to the Staff
Jon Brand Pillar of the Community United States 1023 Posts	Posted 08/10/2018 3:27 pm I believe it is Ms because of this photo alone. This seems to be more accurate and show luster in a spot an au coin would not, in my opinion. It does look scratchy but that pic seems to show original luster. Report this Post to the Staff

Imag8r Valued Member United States 227 Posts	Posted 08/11/2018 06:45 am I am certainly a novice at this but how do you tell between a AU58 and a MS 61 on this coin—i know it cant be higher than 61 from all the marks but I cant tell that its circulated from the pics—on photograde app 58-61 looks the same—i cant tell wear on the high areas(where are the high spots anyways) Report this Post to the Staff
