So I purchased this McKinley $1 gold coin housed in a PCI holder. I bought the coin and not the holder and need some help grading it... It's very lustrous and super small and I'm having a hard time coming up with a grade... What would you grade this at?

The rim gives me the impression that this may be an ex-jewelry piece? UNC-details? smat

Thanks, much better. I'll say AU details (ex-jewelry).

The coin was sent off to PCGS since it looks so much better in person. It came back AU58.

New photos look good. Those first ones you posted made it hard to grade from. Congrats one the grade.

How in the world did you get it back so quickly? I'm still waiting on coins they received on Jan 25!  Great coin, BTW!
