I recently purchased this coin and am mulling over the idea of submitting it to be graded. I have found this year in this grade a bit hard to find.Sorry for the small pics,it's all I have at this time.

I can't judge the luster quality from the photos, nor can I tell if wear is present. The coin has a very flat and washed-out appearance which could just be the lighting, or it could be due to over-dipping that has reduced the luster.

Head detail does look strong enough to make a full head designation, assuming the grading service doesn't find a problem. Detail-wise it's at least an AU-55 and might go MS-63 if it in fact has no wear.

Larger pictures that better display the luster qualities would help!

I'll say AU58. Slight wear on her knee as well as shield. FH,probably not. Great looking coin!
