Looks like a beauty, but the pics are too bright and washed out to show surface detail.
Rest in Peace

Details are gorgeous but please post pics of natural color if it's an original coin .

Too much glare in the photos to see the surfaces.

it could be a beautiful example, but we really need photos without all that glare.

I can still see the thumb, so pretty high end if the surfaces are original, however from the photos it could also just as easily be a whizzed polished example.

I'm with everyone else that the pics are toooo bright.

However; I have that same basic coin in a AU55 holder that does not have the detail yours does. So; at worst an AU-58. I can not speak to details or cleaning; except to note that the fields that I can see are not showing signs of wizzing.

I agree with the upthread comments. The glare makes it impossible to grade from the pictures.

It helps if you can take the pictures using natural light. Especially on silver coins, the glare from artificial light washes out the details.

Did you already buy this coin ,or just looking for comments about it ? Any seller who uses this photo to sell his coin is not all there . If he refuses to provided better pics I would stay away .

I was just looking for a few comments about the coin. If I'm ready to pull the trigger I will have to ask for better pics but this guy has proven to be a mediocre communicator in the past lol. All of his pics have glare and I bought some coins from him and wasn't disappointed. You've got to be in hawk eye mode though and de-glare the images using software. Having said that a residual risk of getting the short end of the stick remains of course...
