looks au58bn but it seems like there should be more luster... strike is sharp but the lettering in the coronet seems weak.

Why are the obverse pictures taken at an angle but the reverse picture is taken straight on?

any way you can take some photos straight on with less lighting. could be MS but light is too much to see the devices accurately. at minimum I'm at AU58

A lovely coin, but overgraded by 2 pts in my opinion. I would have gone MS63BN due to an excessive number of nicks and marks.
