Ill say EF-45 as well, possibly AU-50.

I'm at EF-45. Probably straight grade even with the rim bump.

I've been comparing it closely to the same graded coins. It lacks the lustre of an MS coin, there does seem wear to the eagle's head and neck but this may just be a weak strike. It looks very similar to an AU58 I have found, although from the other comments and taking into account the marks around the cheek I think it would be about an AU53 to AU55.

AU53 decent amount of detail left, a touch darker for my own liking though.

Au53. Not details though it does not have the sort of eye appeal I like.

AU53, probable straight grade, but no definitive. Obverse pic is a bit tough to judge surfaces

Typical New Orleans strike, AU-50 or AU-53 for me. Straight grade. There are some really fun VAMs for this date.

cleaned as in dipped, or with an abrasive--photos do not show hairlines. the fields and cheeks look good but there looks like no luster, just flat. highest is AU 50, likely XF 45.

Definite wear on eagle's breast, legs, and wing tips plus friction on Liberty's cheek and in the fields. Liberty's ear shows solid detail so I'm thinking the strike isn't particularly weak. I'd venture XF-45 and surfaces seem basically original. Of course, the modest value of this common dollar wouldn't justify professional grading.

Probably an old cleaning but not enough to bag it. I'd net it out around EF-45.
