Almost zero wear, but lots of dings and nicks keeps it at AU-58.

I can see no wear although I do see some light marks in the soft gold..... therefore In my mind it is above AU. Great reverse. I vote MS-63. Sure I may be over-grading but that's my take.

This is a frosty and lustrous coin with no visible wear, but with many, many small nicks and abrasions. The big scrape across Liberty's nose might have generated an "MS detail, damaged" result but instead NGC elected to award the lowest possible straight MS grade. As a common-date half eagle it is basically a bullion coin in this condition.

 I was waiting for that opinion actually, because that's what I thought too and decided not to buy this piece.

AU-58 would have been my guess.
