Definitely not less than AU-58 sharpness, possibly Unc. Unsure if dipping is an issue. Rim nick detracts.

Looks mint state to me, possibly MS-62.

It is not a high value coin as there were close to 10 million
produced but for $30.00, you did OK.

Hard to judge . Ill guess AU-53
Looks closer to AU-55 but has numerous marks with larger ones above and below her eye

with Coinfrog. No less than AU-58 but hard to say, possibly low MS. The large contact mark beneath the date is very distracting.
Suffering from bust half fever.

MS-61, just a bit of mishandling.

Mint state. I'd say MS-62. Some distracting marks particularly the rim hit near the date hold it back.

Ok I'm not sure if it was dipped or not before I got it but and the coin is very shiny it's hard to get a good picture due to glare so I did my best w my phone until I get a new microscope camera. I may take it to our local coin shop and see what the owner I'm not really able to get it graded currently but if it's got potential for a higher grade I'll put it in a plastic holder vs 2x2 staple flip. Thank you all for your guestimates
