Got lucky on this for 60 bucks I'd say. Bought this coin at a local coin shop.

this is just my opinion on this one. I'm seeing a coin that was stored improperly for many years and the surface preservation has been compromised very likely by moisture. I have it at AU55 Details (ED). don't get me wrong this is still a nice war time piece. maybe it would clean up with an acetone bath

Yeah, it's gonna have to soak a while in xylene I believe, I let it soak for an hour and a lot of the crud came off, it still has luster to this coin.

AU-53 but might squeeze a 55 out of it.
