Another really tough one, either it's an AU58++ or MS64 with fantastic eye appeal. I'm siding with the MS side. Fantastic looking coin Steelers72!

I am going back and forth between MS62-MS64. Very nice coin and I like the die cracks.

Difficult from on screen pictures,
to determine if there is a tiny amount of wear on the high points of the design that may be hiding under the patina.
That makes it a 'slider' for me.
That explains why westcoin's opinion is as it is. I happen to agree with that opinion:
AU58 or MS64.
I lean towards AU58,
when I see the leading edges of the wings, and the eagle's 'eyebrow',
but I stand to be corrected.

The obverse is so well struck that it appears proof like. Reverse touch on the eagles head is slight rub rather than light strike. AU-58. Eye Appeal 9/10.

Call me a chicken, but I didn't want to be the first to opine. I was thinking that it definitely mint state. I'm thinking between MS-60 and MS-63.
But then again, I could be wrong.

Nice coin. Is that a die clash on the obverse by the arm? MS 62

I'd have to say 64. Really a stunner.

I'm with the MS63 crowd. Beautiful coin.

i keep coming back to this piece mainly because of the toning which makes a little more challenging. I was in the AU58 group but revise it to MS63
