I picked this up at a coin auction yesterday. Just liked the look of it. Photos don't really show the nice toning. What do you think it would grade?

Can't really see any details. The pictures are to small. From here? Maybe F-12. A lot of chatter marks/hits.

Here are a couple different photos of the coin. Not sure if they help or not.

Thanks all. Learning every time I post! So sounds like this coin was cleaned at some point in time then allowed to retone or artificially retoned?

I will chalk this up to an $8 auction buy learning experience.
