My EAC guess is it's in an MS62BN holder.

To me the detail is MS but the overall look is AU with the color and surface color. I will have to assume there is some hiding luster under that brown that the camera didnt pick up. Not a bad looking coin \.

color has no bearing on grade, its either AU or MS. BN coins rarely show any luster.

I was off by one point. Perhaps PCGS subtracted a point for the "sandiness" around the stars and Liberty's head.

this was the reason I dropped it a point was obverse surface preservation and eye appeal warranted a 1 point drop
