Ok, so I put a low ball bid in on this, and won it for $16.00, I'm sure I can get rid of it for at least that, but I am still trying to learn.

Here are my observations, could be over dipped, does have cartwheel, cant tell if it is wear above the ear, or poor strike, and the second cotton ball looks like it might have wear on it.

That's all the bad I could see. Luster isn't great but not poor either.

It was sold as BU in the description with those scanner pictures that are prevalent on ebay now.

Well for $16 that's pretty cheap! It does appear to be AU and dipped appears to be a good description. Nice coin either way!

Can't go wrong at that price, but pics are too dark to evaluate fields for grading.

Best I can do, this coin is hard to shoot because it is really reflective.

Question is, is it AU or MS. I compared it to MS and AU 58 identicals, I just can't tell, it's too close for my poor old eyes.

There is some wear on the wing tips. I suspect AU, perhaps polished, accounting for the reflectivity. But can't go wrong at that price!
