although graders are more lenient with gold the fields on this one show an excessive amount of scratches. technically AU55 but I have to knock it a peg for the surface preservation. AU53

All those scratches running parallel from about 10 to 3 scream abrasively cleaned to me.

I'll say AU-55 straight grade. Gold is really soft.

I don't know whether it would grade straight or not, some of the straight grade slab gold coins I seen have good amount of these fine line, so I can't decide.
If this is a straight grade, AU-53. Because there's 2 dings between 9 and 10 O'clock from the first picture at the rim.

AU details with remaining luster, lots of small marks and likely some abrasions from cleaning. This common-date coin should carry only a small premium over bullion value.
