Photos are 'large', but soft. In my experience, soft images are usually the result using a low resolution JPEG factor when outputting the image(s).

Having said that, the coin looks to be in the MS64-66 range.

Hardly a hit, have to go by the pictures even though they are soft.

Pics are too soft to see details (like the steps). A phone camera is probably never going to give good results. You could go with one of the USB "microscopes" (under $100 new), or get a used DSLR and macro lens for probably under $200. Going that route, you could also get other lenses, and take nice pictures of all sorts of things. There is a forum here devoted to coin photography, lots of good information there.
