I'm in for AU53 as well. Looks to be a bit of a rough patch on the reverse around the ATES in "States" possible planchet issue or flaw? Shouldn't hurt the grade really but would make the value to some go down. Not really a good example to blow money on having it slabbed, IMO anyways. Still a nice coin though, - those that know me know I love all the deuces even the beat up neglected ones, LOL
