None of this issue really saw any circulation.
I have yet to find an example in less than AU-55.

This one most probably has not seen any circulation, but it has been badly handled by those who had little appreciation for the fact that high grade coins almost always have a higher value.

Lots of minor dings especially in the obverse field and lots of fine hairline scratches indicate that it has been harshly cleaned by someone with good intentions, but also didn't know.
Such harsh cleaning necessarily must have affected the high points of the design.

AU-58, cleaned.

Agree, so mishandled that it only rates AU-58.

That's a shame about the cleaning. For sure was Uncirculated, now a details coin, I would estimate MS-62/61.

Not cleaned, I think - just mishandled and not preserved correctly.

Mishandled without a doubt, it looks to me as if it was cleaned far too harshly. Probably a mix of both.
