Haven't been as active as in the past, some health problems but I try and get in here once a week. Happy New year to everyone!

I have an opinion but want to toss it to the membership Thanks for any grading help! RK

I'll say VF-35 or perhaps EF-40 sharpness, but concerned this may have been cleaned and re-toned.

I'd say VF-35, straight grade despite an old cleaning.

Could have been cleaned and retoned but still a nice example. May make XF40

Iridescent toning will hurt this at a TPG, I'm afraid.

Probably - "Questionable coloring"? "Altered surfaces"?

You guys are saying what I was thinking.

My opinion was high VF range with a very slight shot at XF-40. I think there was an old cleaning. The coin looks brownish straight on but tilted in the light you can see what the pictures I posted show.

I am leaving it as is and off to NGC when I have a few more coins to submit.

Many thanks for the opinions, you guys rock!

Same as the others, that color says old cleaning to me. Level of detail says VF35, but I'll bet a TPG gives details
