I just grabbed this from a Local Coin shop . I did not need a 79 P as I have a few others already but, The toning is kinda pretty in hand . Rosy and Golden. I am going to ask my wife to try and get a pic with her camera later as well since these are so bright. She bought a macro lens for her other photography and its only 28mm so not sure if that would work for coins or not but we will see.

Strange coin. The obverse looks MS to me, but the reverse not at all. And is there a fingerprint at "AM"?

Pretty coin. I like the toning. I'll say AU-58, but the photos are bright.

No it looks like maybe album toning or something? It is not a fingerprint I can tell. The breast feathers have full luster with the loop. Maybe just the photo.

Reverse pics suggest AU-58 slider, at least to me.

AU55-58 for me. I'd also have to say that looks like a fingerprint

The way the toning is collected around the devices, and thick, makes me think this coin has been cleaned so I'm going to say AU detail. Might get a clean grade from a TPG.

Once I get the results back I will post them. One cool thing after inspecting it is VAM 41 "Worm Eye"

Another AU-58 robbed of being Prooflike due to PCGS not labeling AU coins as such
