Rim looks like strike weakness to me, given there is also weakness on the obverse K6 lowest point of the neck into the bust and on the reverse at K12 is STATES. Both at said points of rim weakness.

A lot of heavy die polishing scratches left after trying to remove those clashes. Interesting.

Im seeing low MS. Not seeing any wear. MS62/63 depending on in hand luster.
Rest in Peace

Nice! I will post this on the error forum for the clash, crack, and thought die chips for discusion. I was shooting for low MS. The coin is alot more bright then then this, but I had to dial it down so you can see the details. It was marked uncirculated. I think it was.

Some very light friction. Close to MS but only AU-58 to me.

due to the reverse rim damage at K12 and the field scratches below AMERICA I think the coin has seen circulation. I'm with the others in the AU58 bucket
