I added this to my collection because of my interest in coins depicting women ( in contrast to all the coins showing ugly male rulers).

I think it would be vz+ in the german grading system. Maybe corresponding to some variant of AU, I would in this case suggest AU-58. But I would like to stress I am anything but an experienced coin grader... :)

I especially like that the feathers on the Eagles breast are fully detailed, I think this is rare with this coin.

What do you say?

Very nice. Just shy of MS. AU-58 as best I can tell from these photos.

No, its not scratched in my opinion. There are many minor contact marks though.

Don't know about cleaning. Maybe a long time ago.

Those are very obvious huge and deep "contact" marks.

Not really for such a coin. Its not like those have been kept out of circulation by the hundred thousands like e. g. Morgan dollars.
