MS62 no question in my eyes. Unless they detail it for env damage randomly which I cant see any reason why they would...but you know how tpgs are

Best way to determine ED is to tilt the coin under a lamp and look at it under magnification. If the area in question looks like a depression in the coin's surface and appears as if something has eaten into it, then there's a good chance it's indeed ED. If the area is raised like it's gunk buildup, it's probably just the typical crust that original coins often exhibit.

I wonder if this coin might benefit from professional conservation. It does appear to be mint state and if a thick patina is muting the luster perhaps a very light "dipping" treatment would bring it back to life.
As is I like it at the price you paid.

Are there surface pits not revealed in the pics?

As expected they ED'd it for no reason I could see. I'm subbing one to NGC that looks identical to yours. Maybe yours will benefit from an acetone soak or NGC conservation

Quote: Are there surface pits not revealed in the pics? Just what I said before, next to Liberty's right arm it looks like there could be some light damage or ED but I don't think it should be a details for that! I think I will just hold onto it for a while and maybe in a few years send it to NGC.

I just realized that they gave me True View images of my coins.

The True View enlargement does show possible cleaning and a disturbed area under the right (facing) arm. The whole right obverse field doesn't look quite natural as I study it.
