Lightly circulated and scratched - just a spender.

Agree, the coin shows circulation--not heavy circulation, but discernable. Too, it's taken on a less-than-brilliant tone through some exposure to 'the elements'.
Rest in Peace

Umm. no, BU lives in an entirely different neighborhood. This coin shows signs in great wear - the high points are worn almost flat and is pocked marked with hits, scratches, and dings.

AU-50, not considered "BU". BU is Brilliant Uncirculated, i.e. full red with original cartwheel luster.
