Played with the color a little to see if I could see the coin better.

Possibly XF40/45. Now that's just throwing my best guess out, given the horrendous seller pics. As to the authenticity, possible Details coin, or any other issues for that matter.....Ill wait for in hand pics.

One-and-a-half of the markers look correct. EPU has a separation from the back. It seems likely that the right tip of the beard is lower. The other markers simply cannot be seen in the photos.

The price is spot on for a low VF coin, but I can't get any feel for the grade from these pics.

I'll say EF-40 sharpness, but this is not a primo example.

All the die markers are there. You pulled this one off, nice snag. I'll stay at XF-40.

I could make a case for either 35 or 40, but overall the streaky planchet, dark s[pots and blotchy surfaces evident in the first set of pics detract a great deal for me.

All the markers are spot on. Great buy. You snagged this at VF-20 pricing, so there isn't any downside. Very well done!

The grade is not the issue here, but rather the below-average eye appeal.
