Not sure where the green tint in a couple of these pictures is coming from - coin is not green. First image shows the correct color.

Perhaps a trace of rub on the breast? Not less than AU-58.

I see AU58. 55 at worst but a very strong coin. Very nice!

Surprised I got it - so was the dealer. We exchanged a few emails - he was taking a shot with the auction and came out on the bad end.

Yeah, it was such a nice coin. I was really surprised that it seemed to fly under everybody's radar.

Strong obverse strike and nice eye appeal. Agree with slight circulation. AU-58 seems fair. Congrats!
