Hey guys, bought this one off ebay. To my eye it looks like a 58, and still got some luster left. Dirt on the wing was loosened up by acetone and could benefit from some more conservation. Considering sending this one into PCGS

I'll say AU-55 or even 58 sharpness, but the color lacks appeal for me.

I'd say AU-55 with nice original surfaces. Is that a small Cud on the lower reverse?

AU-58 for wear but eye appeal not so good.

Hey guys I just wanted to update this thread. I ended up sending it to PCGS for restoration and it came back AU58, and it looks much better as well. Pleasing surfaces after PCGS did what they did.

PCGS did a very nice job. Definitely improved. Nice pictures too. What did you use for the pictures? I can never get decent images of my slabbed coins.
