Scarce, but relatively inexpensive.

I'll say VF-30.

It has a lot of contact marks but isn't very worn. Hopefully the obverse marks aren't enough to "detail" the coin. There are luster traces particularly on the reverse. I'd say XF-45 or AU-50 overall.

I am at XF45, but I do not like the divot by the star.

Banged up but little wear. I'll go out on a limb with AU53.

Slider23, the divot you mention does not detract in hand. Certainly more noticeable in the photo.

i dont think the hit on the obverse is significant enough for a details grade. the arrow feathers are completely obliterated. could have been filled in at time of stamping or just from wear. you see that on coins in G/VG range so I doubt that. I think she makes AU50

Looks AU-53 to me. They tend to go easy on gold especially the older dates.
