Can you please grade this quarter dollar for me please. The colour hasn't come out correct, it actually is a dull silver.

Thanks

It is a little blurry, especially the obverse.
Going by the criss-crosses on the eagles breast, I would say xf pushing au?
But I am by no means an expert... I am trying to learn to grade so I figured I would give my input and see what others say.

I'm leaning toward AU50. With some luster, I could see it a little higher. The breast feathers aren't struck well on these coins, so if you can see anything at all, you're probably in the AU range.

I like the reverse much better than the obverse: to me the reverse is AU 58; Obverse XF.

Susan is correct about the strike on these coins, even the SMS coins show weakness in the breast feathers, I agree AU-50.
