I won this on bad pics so was not expecting much and figured I may overpay but also thought there was a chance I might of gotten a nice find based on sellers description . Bids stayed pretty low so I bit. She has alot of cabinet rub marks but is very highly reflective . I have no doubt she is prooflike but shows every mark . Nothing deep .AU Prooflike coins usually show any wear pretty easily and I am not really seeing anything . Maybe I am missing some minor wear . Sorry for the bad photos .   |

typical average strike for this year. the glare is washing out surfaces so pretty much impossible to determine the luster. I have to assume its broken across at least across the cheek. the fields do have a PL look.
AU58 or MS63. will reassess if you post better photos.

Tentative AU58, looks like it may have been dipped, but better pics may show more/less.

Better pics would help - very difficult to see surface details.

The date is difficult to find in PL, and I can not tell from these photos. The reverse photo is showing reflective fields. I am going to pass on grading until better photos. With a mark free reverse, the coin does have a chance of being MS.

Very hard to tell from photos but MS-62 PL wouldn't surprise me. Or AU-58. Looking forward to better pics.

I don't see clear evidence of circulation, so I'm leaning toward MS. The obverse has quite a bit of scuffing and a few sharp contact marks. The reverse is fantastic. IMHO, the obverse holds this coin back to MS-62. The reverse definitely looks PL. The obverse seems to be on the old SPL/PL fence. I'll follow @fenton's lead with MS-62, and say either the old SPL or PL.

I can not get the lighting right , Natural light seems to take the best photos of what I have but here are a few pics . Not sure if anyone here can work magic on them. I had to move my cell phone around to keep it from reflecting on the coin.   Edited by JasonKflo

I'd say MS-62 based on the new photos, possibly PL. Very similar to the 1878 that was posted.

just too much glare to see the surfaces properly. could have been polished or could be just the glare on the profile

PCGS said AU-58 so no prooflike on the label but prooflike in hand.
