Good looking coin for $6. I'm at XF40 on this one.

I'd be at EF-40 as well. The background fields and rims are incredibly clean!

Nice looking coin for $6. It has great eye appeal. I agree, EF-40, but it should sell higher than a 40 price.

Sharper pics would help, but EF-40 sounds about right. Great price.

AU details (4 diamonds), definitely cleaned and re-toned.

Oh my. In looking at the new photos, the surface definitely is not original.
I enlarged both new photos, and I an intrigued by the bubbled surfaces next to the devices. (This is especially prominent on the reverse.) These either are residue of the grime that was cleaned from the surface elsewhere, or it could be bubbling from plating. The smooth fields and abnormal color could suggest plating.
It looked so nice in the first photos, though. Hate to say it, but I'd return this critter to the stream and go fishing again.
